K2 Bond Binding 25/26 – First Look

Flexible, fun, and built to ride everywhere.

The 2025/26 K2 Bond binding hits the sweet spot for riders who want one setup that works in the park, on groomers, and everywhere in between. It offers a balanced flex that lets you carve with confidence and tweak with ease. The straps feel comfortable and wrap your boot in place without feeling over-locked, and the whole design keeps things light, responsive, and ready to play. Whether you’re popping jumps, linking turns, or just cruising around the mountain, the Bond keeps your ride smooth and fun.

The Snowboard International First Thoughts are back for another season of in-depth gear reviews, giving you the lowdown on the best snowboard gear for winter 25/26. This time around, the team spent two weeks up in Åre, Sweden, putting the latest kit to the test: five riders, three videographers, and one epic resort.
