DOD D3O Snowboard Bindings 2024

About the Rome DOD D3O

The Rome D.O.D AKA the 'Do Or Die' snowboard bindings are built for riders that see the whole mountain as a terrain park.

The Anti Shock highback used in the D.O.D has been redesigned, and while it retains performance it comes in a lower profile form. The flex channel allows the top of the highback to flex before locking out for full power & can be rotated to optimise heelside performance whilst allowing more freedom in movement along the length of the board.

The D.O.D. uses Rome's Ultralight ankle straps which are cushioned and supportive thanks to the lightweight injected EVA manufacturing and 'dog-bone' shape for maximum surface area. Rome has upgraded the D.O.D. with the Progrip toe strap, which uses a network of small hinges to provide unmatched hold.

Rome has used D30 in the subbase pad to reduce chatter and improve shock absorption, which has been combined with their Fullwrap platform to give this binding maximum energy transfer, making it stable at speed but playful enough to press and tweak. D3O technology is a patented smart material known for its use in protective gear and impact-resistant products. The material is soft and flexible at rest, but upon impact, it instantly hardens due to non-Newtonian polymers within a dilatant fluid. This unique property allows D3O to provide effective impact protection without sacrificing comfort or flexibility. Widely applied in sports, industrial, electronics, and military contexts, D3O is utilised in helmets, knee pads, gloves, and other gear, offering a combination of comfort and enhanced impact resistance by dynamically adapting its stiffness in response to sudden forces.

Rome also allows for their trademark customisation with the ability to rotate the highback which allows for different levels of performance depending on your riding style. The adjustable baseplate has been created to fit the widest range of boot sizes possible.
