NON-MECHANICAL DISC:Pi Technology bindings use a single disc for both the Evolve and Revolve models providing the rental center with two levels of binding performance; which offers easy upgrade options.

TOOL FREE ADJUSTMENTS: Pi disk Technology with Flow Speed Entry Technology.

ONE DISK SYSTEM:The Flow Non-Mechanical Disk works on both Evolve and Revolve models.

TRULY SYMMETRICAL BINDINGS:No lefts or rights to worry about, thus regular and goofy riders can be set up more quickly. If your rental center offers the 2-strap Evolve model the lateral ratchets make the bindings symmetrical.

FRONT LOCKING LEVER:Three stage lever allows the user to easily adjust stance, switch between goofy / regular, locks in desired stance and releases from disk to remove binding from board.

3-D POWERSTRAP:Performance is enhanced through our patented Fusion PowerStraps. The Flow PowerStrap keeps the boot firmly in place and distributes pressure over the entire foot increasing blood circulation, which prevents foot cramping and cold feet. Flow’s Fusion PowerStrap creates greater energy transmission and ankle support in toe-side turns, leading to better edge control.

RECLINING HIBACK:Flow’s Original Reclining Hiback offers riders the quickest entry and exit system available on the market. KICK-LOCK-DROP Technology gets you off the lift and ready to ride faster than any other binding you can buy.

POWERTRIANGLE:Unique to every Flow binding is our patented PowerTriangle technology. The PowerTriangle consists of three elements: The structural baseplate, the Hiback, and most importantly, the high-tensil cable. The cable directly transfers energy from the Hiback to the baseplate, which means more energy is directed into the board. This helps beginners with easier turn initiation and provides more transmission and control for advances riders.

PI TECHNOLOGY IS A SYSTEM THAT ALLOWS THE RENTAL BINDING TO ROTATE AROUND A CENTRAL DISK, MAKING IT EASY FOR THE USER TO ADJUST THE RIDERS STANCE WITHOUT THE USE OF TOOLS. The Pi Collection of bindings combine Flow’s Core Technology (reclining hiback, 3-D PowerStrap and PowerTriangle) with Pi Technology (fixed disk with mechanical baseplate), making these rental bindings the quickest and most user/rental shop friendly binding design in the world. Tool free, simple set up, easy adjustability — even on-hill and low-stack flexible storage make Flow’s Revolve and Evolve bindings the best choice for any rental operation. Both Revolve and Evolve bindings use the same non-mechanical disc for the ultimate in interchangeability and ease of setup.

FOR THE CUSTOMERWHAT GO RIDING CENTER MEANS...

FOR THE RENTAL SHOP

The ANSR Rental boot has a molded liner and lightweight outsole. Don’t be fooled, it’s definitely got the brass that’s needed in volume rental applications: Gnarly toe bumper and a new textured backstay put the right material in these high chafe areas. For the toe top region, subject to board edge damage, we also add a durable molded rubber perimeter panel to protect the toe box and lace areas.

This boot offers an integrated clear window on the back for sizing and bar code insert. And if you store boots upside down on driers, or want to create your own size markings, the outsole has a color coded insert ready to receive customized sizing in any of the common systems. But all this armor and these rental-specific features don’t weigh The ANSR down – it’s a truly modern boot that fits great, will make committed customers out of first timers, and even keep experienced riders happy with the all-mountain performance it delivers. Offered in both traditional lace and BOA® Coiler closure systems.

• Anatomic insole

• 3D molded liner with internal L pads (Velcro or Lace closure)

• New cup sole with internal EVA heel dampening

• Integrated carry handles that also aid entry

• Clear window panel for size marking and bar code insert

• Offered in Unisex Lace, BOA® Coiler and Kids M3 BOA®

• Super Durable abrasion resistant molded rubber toebox.

Uncommon durability with an “Easy to Learn” flex and geometry are the key benefits of the Flow Rhythm. The mid-width True Twin Shape and the catch-free convex base make first turns come naturally, while the structured lacquered top finish adds durability and easy cleaning for season after season service. The mellow Dual Transitional sidecut allows easy turning at slower speeds while also allowing stability at faster speeds...Learning is about the Rhythm.

TOOL FREE ADJUSTMENTSDial allows for tool free forward lean adjustments.

CORE TECHNOLOGYEvery Flow binding is built around the combination of three critical elements: The original Reclining Hiback, the Fusion PowerStrap, and the Flow PowerTriangle.

TOOL FREE ADJUSTMENTHiback position can be adjusted in the shop or on the hill by an instructor or user.

FRONT LOCKING LEVERLocking lever allows the user to securely lock toeside lever down by rotating and clicking into place.

Symmetry is the only way to achieve full interchangeability, a symmetrical baseplate is important, But ONLY FLOW offers a 100% symmetrical binding. That means any binding can be quickly adjusted for regular or goofy riders.

No need to search for a screwdriver, wrench or special tool. Every Flow binding utilizes Pi Technology providing tool free adjustability. Stance angle, forward lean, strap adjustment and Hiback position can be adjusted anytime by an instructor, shop employee or customer on or off the hill.

When it comes time to store your rental equipment, Flow makes it possible to run your operation your way. Our binding’s low stack design gives you the option to rack the binding and board together or store them separately. If stored separately, Flow’s proven color coding system allows boots to be immediately linked to the correct binding.

Maintenance is kept to a minimum as Pi bindings have no springs, no fancy latches, and no mechanical discs. In fact, for angle adjustment and binding removal, there are only two moving parts. Maintenance requires no special tools or procedures. An occasional spray of silicone and annual cleaning is all it takes.
