K2 Auto Snowboard Binding
The toe strap on the K2 Auto Snowboard binding automatically closes and opens with the ankle strap, which means more time riding and less time sitting on your ass strapping in. That's right—one ratchet, two straps. The first time you ride, just set the toe strap to your desired tightness; the Auto Binding remembers how you like it each time you strap in. New on the Auto Binding this season is Harshmellow, lightweight polymer pads placed on the toe and heel of each binding that absorbs vibration and disperses shock from flat landings. The Auto's new toe strap goes over the top or across the front of your boot. You'll also appreciate this performance freestyle binding's new super comfy Custom Caddy ankle strap.
Bottom Line: Take your freestyle skills to the entire mountain without wasting time with a toe strap.
Leave your mark on The Wall.

This binding is one of the smoothest bindings I have ever ridden. The feel is very close to surfing or wakeboarding. The response is quick yet it is very fluid. They are quick to get on and super lite, great for everything on the mountain. My buddy had issues with his cable BUT I was fine all last year. The new cable system seems to have fixed all issues that some were having. If you haven't tried them, do it. Plus the new ones have this new foam they use called harshmellow, AWESOME stuff.

Light and responsive binding. I've had no problem with the straps whatsoever, I'm always the first one ready to go down the mountain and always the first one ready to get back in line up the lift. Great all mountain binding with tight response and plenty shock absorption.
I am currently riding the 1st year model of K2 cinches; love
I am currently riding the 1st year model of K2 cinches; love them but they are extremely heavy! Debating if I should upgrade to a newer model of the cinches (I heard they have made them much lighter) or switch to the Autos. I have also had an issue with the cinches wearing down the back of my boot. Any info on which binding is lighter or performs better?

I've been riding Autos (and most recently the Auto Evers) for going on 3 years now. At first I was skeptical because the first series kept breaking. Honestly though, when they worked- they worked awesome! After getting mine back from the recall, I've had no issues at all with them. As far as these compared to the K2 cinches- the cinches are cool too- one of my favorite ridin buds rocks em and swears by em...However, when it comes to malfunctions and the fact that they tear up boots the K2 auto wins hands down. The Auto is lighter by 30%, less parts to break, and a hell of a lot easier to get in and out of in deep powder- bottom line, get em- if youre disappointed you can punch me in the face!
