As one of the most progressive freestyle snowboarders out there, Fridtjof Tischendorf, more commonly known as Fridge, demands the very best from his equipment in terms of performance and durability. For this season, he's worked with Now to create probably the most performance-focused freestyle binding on the market. Built around the Skatetech Hanger 2.0, the Fridge Pro delivers unrivalled energy directly to the board's edges via the innovative kingpin design. This unmatched energy transfer delivers a lightning-fast response, delivering the ultimate in control and performance, all without compromising that playful freestyle feeling underfoot.

NOW FRIDGE PRO TECHNOLOGY
Skate Tech:
Traditional bindings diminish energy transfer by the flexing and bending their baseplate, forcing you to crank your straps down harder, ride with more forward lean, or run taller and stiffer highbacks; this leads to more foot fatigue and pain. NOW bindings bypass the middle of the snowboard and direct your energy straight to the board's edges. They do this by mounting the baseplate via their exclusive Kingpin design. Taking its inspiration from skateboard trucks, this kingpin acts as a fulcrum, transferring power directly to both the board's toe and heel side edges. The increased efficiency means you ride with less effort and don't need to crank your straps so tight, so you get increased performance and can also ride for longer.
Hanger 2.0:
The 30% Glass Hanger 2.0 offers a widened heel cup footprint when compared to the original Hanger 1.0. to improve boot-fitting compatibility. The drop-down medial wall adds lateral flexibility, while snow clearing channels prevent ice build-up underneath the highback legs.
Hyperfuse II Strap:
The HYPERFUSE II strap is an evolution and a design refinement over our original HYPERFUSE strap. Inspired by shoe construction, the HYPERFUSE II is a stitchless, spineless strap. Its inner guts are constructed with nylon webbing that is strong, durable and flexible, and sandwiched between two layers of EVA. The end product is a comfortable and lightweight binding strap that can handle the elements and the test of time.
Freestyle Highback:
- Symmetrical shape • Minimal top curve for extra mobility • Hidden flex hinge at the top 1/3
- Dampens chatter and eliminates calf bite • Flex rating: 6
3D Contour Toestrap
If it's grip you're after, look no further than the 3D Contour Toe Strap. This strap is not only super grippy, but is also moldable and can be used on either the tip or top of your boot.
PA66GF Buckles
PA66-GF buckles are made with the same high-grade Nylon and Glass Fiber blend found in our Now's
and disc. This material is light and strong.
Hinge Connector
The Hinge Connector design allows the straps to move out of the way when stepping in and out.
It is strong and durable and helps reduce strap damage and wear.
