Description

Among the snowboard bindings from Jones, the Meteorite is one of the most accessible, along with the Orion, both in terms of price and performance. It is less responsive and more forgiving than the mercury, which itself is more versatile than the Apollo, the most freeride-oriented.

What is the program of the Jones Meteorite snowboard binding?

The Meteorite is made for a versatile, freeride-oriented use. It features a high back that sits high and provides very good support to the calf to get control on backside edging. However, it remains flexible at the tips to not be too demanding physically. The straps are also able to securely hold your foot on the frontside, while being comfortable. If need be, they can even be rotated to switch to "surf" mode, for more playfulness. Finally, the footbed offers an enjoyable comfort on landings, while the Skate Tech bushings located at the four corners of the binding provide more responsiveness on power transfers. The Meteorite is capable to offer support and responsiveness during the freeride descents requiring the most commitment, without being exclusive to this discipline. Its comfortable construction and flex will preserve your energy level to ride all day long and maybe even send some tricks from time to time.

Who is the Jones Meteorite snowboard binding for?

This model is meat for intermediate to advanced level snowboarders looking for a binding that is versatile above all, with which they will be able to progress both in carving, freeride or freestyle.

Tips and advice

For an optimum comfort and a safe ride, it is essential to set your bindings correctly. To do so, you need to take off the screws of the basplate with a Phillips screwdriver (4 screws for most bindings, 3 on some Burton's boards, and 2 Burton's boards featuring the ICS system on EST Burton's bindings).

Also, on some bindings, the plate is hidden underneath the gas pedal. To unscrew the plate, you need to take off the gaspedal first. You can do that by unscrewing it, or if there's no visible srew (on some Burton's bindings for instance), you need to pull the gaspedal upward to unblock it.

1. The bindings stance

The first thing to start with is your stance. Right foot in the fronf if you are Goofy, left foot in the front if you are Regular.

2. The stance width

Once you're correctly oriented, you need to set the stance width, i.e. the length of the gap between your feet. This width will vary depending on your style or on your board. Often, you'll notice some marks on the inserts. They show the standard stance recommended for the board. If you don't know what's your stance, use these marks for your first settings. If after riding you don't feel comfortable this way, you can always change these settings for a wider or narrower stance.

3. The bindings angle

Eventually, you'll need to set the angle of your bindings, that means you'll set the way your feet are oriented on the board. To do so, turn the plate until you reach the correct angle (written in degrees). Don't do this settings with the plate screwed on, or you'll damage the cranks of the plate or the baseplate.

Angle marks are going 3 by 3 (one mark equals 3 degrees). The classic angles for a beginner or a recreational snowboarder would be +15° for the front foot (toes pointing forward) and 0° for the rear foot.

If you're more into freestyle, you can try the "duck stance", it provides more stability on landings. The duck stance (also called mirrored) is very comfortable, but may not feel very natural at first. Start with a slight angle for the back foot. For instance, +15° for the front, -3° or -6° for the back. This is usually used for freestyle, on twin-tip boards. It allows an easier switch riding. Angle up the binding until you find the perfect stance. Freestylers usually ride with a centered stance angled at +15° / -15° for a better switch or regular riding, easier spins and stabler landings.

If you are more like a carver or a freerider, the angle will be set for easier high speed turns. That means both feet will be oriented forward. Try every angle and see how it feels. We recommend that you don't go below +15° for the front foot. Try to ride for a few hours and adjust your angles according to your feel. Common forward angles are +18° / +6 °.
