Clew Independence 1.0 2026 Zwart

The 2026 Clew Independence 1.0 is the perfect binding for boarders who want faster, effortless entry without sacrificing stability and control. Clew combines advanced technology with minimalist design for a powerful, lightweight binding you’ll want to ride all day.

• Hybrid Entry System: The Independence uses a patented system that combines classic ratchets with a step-in/out mechanism, allowing you to get in and out super fast without compromising fit or safety.

• Ultra-light & Robust: Thanks to high-performance materials with long glass fibers, this binding weighs up to 20% less than older models, while being up to 15% stronger at critical points.

• Natural Stance via Canting: The binding’s base features integrated 2.5° canting, ensuring efficient power transfer and a more natural, comfortable stance.

• Tool-free Adjustments: Both the ankle and toe straps are designed for tool-free adjustment – ideal for quickly fine-tuning to your boot or riding style.

• Compatibility: Works with virtually all soft boots – no special boots needed. Additionally, the binding is compatible with all common mounting systems (4×4, 4×2, Channel & 3D).

• Flex & Response: The flex is described as “medium-hard,” providing a solid mix of comfort and direct response across various terrains.

• Durable Materials: Constructed with TPU, EVA, PA6 with fiberglass, stainless steel, aluminum, and galvanized steel – carefully chosen for both strength and weight.

• Made in Germany: German production ensures high-quality finish and precision.

• Intended Use: Ideal for all-mountain riders – whether you’re carving on the slopes, riding through powder, or hitting the trick line in the park.

The updated Independence 1.0 offers the freedom of a step-in binding without the drawbacks of traditional step-in systems. Clew has optimized the mechanics so that the binding works reliably, even in extreme temperatures.
