Hyperlite's new System Binding is a step in a new direction for wakeboard retention devices. Instead of trying to incorporate comfort and support into the same piece of footwear, they've taken a hint from the snowboard world and created a binding that looks just like the baseless bindings or snowboarding's yesteryear. Add to that a new boot that fits nice and snug into the binding and you've got yourself a system that has loads of support and is super comfy.
