The Curated Take

By the Expert Community

I have ridden these bindings on a slew of Arbor's boards including the Coda in the rocker and camber option, the Clovis, the Annex, the Wasteland, the Crosscut, the Bryan Iguchi, and this last time on the Draft camber. It definitely fits best in the way that it rides on the more all mountain, pow, or freeride options from Arbor, but still did well on the Draft. The base they use on their binding has a full rubber gasket under the frame in an X pattern that provides really good shock absorbtion and a little bit of flex around the disc to minimize any dead spot that bindings can cause in the flex of the board. The straps held great on the toe and the ankle straps are some of the most comfortable on the market. The ankle straps have an asymetric build that can be used to make them feel stiffer or softer. Out of the box, they come in the softer setup. All that needs to be done to stiffen them up a little bit, is to swap them between the bindings. So simply put the left ankle strap on the right binding and vice versa. The highbacks have an nice curved shape to them that helps to even out the pressure up top, but they are a little taller than I typically like. They're moderately stiff but not overbearing and they never felt like they were in my way, even when buttering around on the softer Draft.

Ideal for
  • Great for boards in the all mountain up to freeride categories
  • Smooth feel underfoot
  • Great response while maintaining good board feel and natural board flex
Not ideal for
  • Highback is on the tall side and could cause bite

The Arbor Cypress Snowboard Bindings are designed for freeride enthusiasts who crave a little more excitement in their runs. With a powerful System X Baseplate that has been stiffened with double the fiberglass, these bindings offer unparalleled stability and control. The highback is lighter, stiffer, and more laterally supportive than ever before, while the outsole has been beefed up to provide maximum performance on big mountains at high speeds.

Key Features:

  • Stiff System X Baseplate: The exclusive System X Baseplate has been stiffened with double the fiberglass to provide unmatched stability and control.
  • Lightweight Highback: The highback is lighter than previous models while still being stiffer and more laterally supportive for improved performance.
  • Beefed Up Outsole: The outsole has been beefed up to provide maximum performance on big mountains at high speeds.
  • Freeride Design: These bindings are specifically designed for freeride enthusiasts who crave a little more excitement in their runs.
  • Unparalleled Stability and Control: With a powerful baseplate and lightweight yet supportive highback, these bindings offer unparalleled stability and control on any terrain.

Expert Advice from Elias
5 /5
I’ve been toying with the idea of buying new boots and skis for a couple years. Since the last time I purchased was over 30 years ago, a lot had changed and I had a lot to learn. After renting numerous brands, last year, I started working with Elias to understand what was out that I might be interested in buying and why. He was patient, explained the differences in new vendors, their technology, and was extremely helpful in helping me find the perfect set of skis and boots. I would definitely recommend Elias to friends or family looking to buy ski gear on Curated. Thanks again!

I was buying a snowboard for my 16 year old daughter and I know nothing about the sport. Austin helped put together an awesome package for her based on her age, size and skill. He shopped around and found the best deals for me and even the color board she wanted, This was such an amazing and personalized way to shop!

Great experience!
5 /5
I’ve been snowboarding for a few years but was always renting. Finally buckled down and committed to getting my own setup, but I didn’t really know where to start. Chris absolutely crushed it, was insanely helpful, responsive, and genuinely such a nice guy. It never felt like he was selling me on something but really just trying to set me up with the best gear and within my budget. I definitely recommend working with him!

Corry was so helpful!
5 /5
Corry could channel my teenage son and help me select the perfect snowboard and bindings set up for his first snowboard! My son is an intermediate boarder who loves to ride with his friends both on groomers and in the park and Corry really chose great options from which I could choose. He was funny and helpful and so knowledgeable. Excellent customer service!!!
