- Cushioning. Support. Shock absorption. The all-new 2023 Flex LX have a sense of luxury that speaks to the perfect balance between performance and design.
Engineered to help absorb and disperse impact after gravity-defying boosts, with triple-density Dynamic support technology to protect your heels and guarantee softer landings.
We’ve added structure and stability with a more contoured footbed and ramped chassis for improved fit and increased lateral support. Outer angled heel inserts ensure your foot rolls properly, providing a stable landing and protecting your knees and ankles when loading up to release into the air.
The GripFlex lightweight, rubberized EVA inner maintains grip underfoot when wet, while the fine grip pattern helps keep you locked in on various angles, preventing your foot from sliding out of the binding.
We’ve refined the adjustable injection-Velcro top flap to provide a strong yet flexible hold. The strap has a soft foam and KnitFlex seamless lining with split-Velcro fastenings. These provide custom comfort and allow your foot to shuffle more easily into a locked-in position.
For your ultimate fit, ensure there's enough room for your toes to stretch and flex, and make sure the strap doesn't slip or rub. The upper should feel secure, but not too tight, and the footbed should match the shape of your foot.
The Flex LX are compatible with both our new 2023 FlipTech centreline and 2020-2022 offline TwinTip mounting systems. Industry-standard screw spacings ensure they can also be fitted to other boards.
“They look right, and they feel right, from the moment you slide your feet in.” - Marc Jacobs.

Really nice series! Also love that ending :D
We're stoked to hear you are loving our Designer Notes series! 🙌
I've used these for 1hr. I'm trying to find the balance between having a strong connection for a good unhooked scoop and also having them loose enough to kick them off. How do I go about this? I set to 1:1, and mounted close to the middle but maybe this is wrong? Also allowing my foot to twist inside during a wipeout - I don't know if that's possible with these? I assume the front should be looser or than the rear, is that correct? I see the front sits more open so I'm confused.
Hey there,
Thanks for reaching out.
If you wanted more information on finding the balance between connection and unhooked, we recommend you head over to our Open Sessions binding series: ua-cam.com/video/q85h3RkDLlc/v-deo.html
It'll show you all the adjustability of the binding. This should help you get set up with your bindings.
Please let us know if you have any other questions.
See you out there,
Jamie 🤙
