Burton Hitchhiker Splitboard Binding - 2026 Black, L

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""I’ve toured on a lot of split setups, and the Hitchhiker is the most confidence-inspiring binding I’ve used. The Tesla T1 system makes transitions quick and frustration-free even in deep snow, and on the descent, it feels almost identical to my resort bindings. The straps and highback are classic Burton—secure, responsive, and comfortable on long days out."" We trust the Burton Hitchhiker Splitboard Binding when our adventures push deeper into the backcountry. Developed in collaboration with Spark R&D, this binding blends the proven Tesla T1 touring system with Burton’s legendary straps and highback design to deliver performance that excels both on the climb and the descent. Whether we’re skinning up a remote ridge or dropping into a fresh line, it’s built to keep every transition smooth and every turn precise. Machined aluminum construction keeps weight to a minimum without sacrificing durability, while the Hammockstrap™ and Supergrip Capstrap™ lock our boots in with secure, pressure-free comfort. A negative forward lean option makes touring feel natural, and the medium-stiff flex inspires confidence on steep, technical descents. When we need a binding that’s as ready as we are to explore beyond the ropes, the Hitchhiker is always up for the challenge."
