What is so “SICK” about Flow? Sick is the word often exclaimed after dropping a steep line in the backcountry, sticking a big drop or nailing a sick trick. Psychologists call it a “visceral experience”. Visceral describes a deep inner feeling that affects you at your core, is driven by instinct and not intellect. The result is a power-boosted, emotional cocktail, searing the memory in our brains and locking the experience in our bones.
We just call it The Sickness!

{FIELD NOTES}
EZ-ROCK
CReavm. bCearmber
Super mellow reverse camber combined with a convex base for the railyard for easy riding without the edge catching. This is combined with camber starting before the binding area, providing stability, easy presses and agility, no matter where you mount your bindings.
POP_CAM
Our Pop-Cam is a three-phase camber to make the most fun cambered snowboard on the market. Under the feet is a traditional camber that is flat between the bindings for added grip on ice, better float in the pow and to lock onto rails, while the tips are mellow for a more forgiving ride. Pop where you need it!
EZ-ROCK POP-CAM I-ROCK POW-ROCK
SHAPES I-ROCK
Reverse camber combined with a convex base for a more natural feel on rails and smoothness in the chop. This, in combination with camber starting before the binding area, provides stability and camber-like pop no matter where you mount your bindings. The I-Rock combines a surfy feel with pop and stability.
POW-ROCK
If you prefer more waist-deep conditions, Pow-Rock is what you want. PowRock utilizes two cambered areas and a long mellow reverse camber with a convex base to maximize your surface area and float in the deep stuff while adding more pop and better stability in all conditions.

whiskey Technology:
Power to your feet for a more responsive and smoother ride that adds life to the board by increasing strength in the binding areas.
Whiskey X
Every line and arc is designed to improve effortless carving, quicker response, a smoother ride and increase the power under your feet. The uniquely shaped Titanal plates for power, doubling the breaking strength and giving you a Cadillac feel in the binding area. This is linked together with a bamboo bridge that allows freedom so both bindings work harmonically together. Ride faster, harder, and with less effort.
Whiskey Royale
Whiskey Royale technology utilizes Biax Fiberglass beneath the heel and toe areas of the binding, eliminating chatter and making for a smoother ride. By directing the glass toward the edge, we increase the edge hold while allowing for quicker, easier turn initiation and delivering a responsive ride and increasing the life of the board.
Whiskey Rocks
All new Whiskey Rocks tech increases agility while adding pop and grip. Four Basalt plates beneath the heel and toe areas directs the rider’s energy to the board’s key control surfaces and doubles the breaking strength to increase edge hold in all conditions with a Cadillac feel.
shaping Technologies
All sidecuts, rocker, camber, and core profiles are designed together to focus energy to the binding areas, relaxing the nose/tail transition are a and creating a more energetic ride.
cores: All Flow cores use durable woods that provide the lightest strength-to-weight ratio. Too light and the board loses its life and breaks easier. Our focus is to have a strong yet agile riding core since it’s the skeleton of the board. The profile determines the ride and the pop, so every board goes through a long cycle of designing to ensure the best profile for the rocker, camber and sidecut.
ReFlex Core
Flow’s lightest and most responsive core gives you the highest strength-to-weight wood construction known to man. Focused response where you need it, and more low-to-mid-density woods in specific locations throughout the board increase strength while decreasing weight, and make your ride all that much easier.
TruFlex Core
Similar to the ReFlex core, TruFlex core technology features a high strength-to-weight wood construction utilizing different density poplar woods uniquely profiled to give you excellent all-around response when riding the mountain.
fiber reinforcements: New, flatter fiberglass adds more pop, wastes less epoxy and creates a stronger, longer lasting snowboard while decreasing weight. Precured Carbon reduces epoxy waste while channeling energy in the areas needed.
Whiskey Shooter
All New Whiskey Shooter uses 4 precured carbon plates with a unique shape that tapers into the tips in a reverse “V” for the most pop without chatter while freeing up the nose and tail for any transition, rough terrain, and heavy pressing.
Whiskey Bars
All New Whiskey Bars is a custom V-design using 4 precured carbon plates that loads up the pop without adding stiffness thru a unique shape. Design is aided with a tapered shape towards the nose and tail which increases stability at the highest speeds without chattering through the chunder.
Quadrax(Formulated Fiber Reinforcement)
The 0/+30/-30/90 fiberglass & carbon orientation increases pop with the majority of fibers running tip-to-tail giving you stability and torsional freedom between the feet while distributing binding pressure over a larger area from the 30 degree axis fibers for a more natural flexing ride that can’t be reached with Triax.
Biaxial (0/90 degrees)
A smooth, easy, torsional feel, the majority of the fibers are in the 0 axis to add extra pop and an easy torsional flex to the board. Easy carving for all-mountain or park performance.
Optix 2000
A high-density, extruded base that is extremely easy to maintain and fix. The Optix 2000 is one of the highest waxabsorbing bases on the market and will give you all the speed you need even if you don’t wax on a regular basis.
Sintered 4000
Speed, wax absorption and durability are the main ingredients of the Sintered 4000. This is done through focusing on quality over speed-robbing additives. For an even faster base, the Graphite Sintered 4000 only has speed on its mind.
shapes: TruTwin
The TruTwin is the essence of shape for a park board. Equidistant amounts of nose and tail allow a rider equal opportunity to ride their natural direction or switch.
Directional Twin
The directional twin has the exact same shape of the nose and tail, but with setback inserts and a core profile for snap off the tail and a more forgiving nose in crud and pow.
Directional
With a little more nose than tail, a setback insert pattern and flex for more performance and better float in powder, the directional boards in our line thrive in any terrain. From the park to the pipe to the pow, the directional twin takes shape to do it all.
sidecuts: (Dual Transitional)
The DT Sidecut utilizes a combination of two radii. First, a tight radius for quick, responsive carves is blended into a mellow radius right before the nose and tail of the board for rough terrain, high speeds and the forgiveness you need while jumping.
(Progressive Dual Transitional)
One of the most complex designed sidecuts on the market that provides a natural carve with a progressive feel, the PDT uses years of experience. We were one of the first companies to use a slight reverse radius at the binding areas. This year’s PDT adds a slight reverse sidecut at the binding areas with progressive sidecut that is mellow just at the tips and between the feet. The ultimate combo with Pow-Rock adds grip between and at the binding areas.
(EZ Dual-Transitional)
Sidecut designed around our rocker boards, the EZDT is mellow between the bindings and at the tips with a more aggressive grip in the binding areas. This creates a more forgiving ride when things get a bit bumpy, and a tight radius blended for quick, snappy, powerful carving.
We focus on every board to provide a longer lasting stick that rides great from right out of the wrapper. At Flow, we provide a board for any style rider that is meant to stand the test of time and to always design a board for the rider who demands the most from their money.

2011 FLow bIndInGS
Flow bindings are different, and that is exactly what makes them better. When you stray from the norm, you push forward with new ideas, new technology, and in essence, Flow created a new product that out-performs everything else on the market. Flow is the originator of the “Speed Entry” binding, and since its inception, other brands out there have tried to jump on the bandwagon and imitate what we’ve perfected, but it just doesn’t work. Performance, comfort and convenience: That’s the total package you get when you go with Flow.

Understanding the Flow binding line is almost as easy as it is to ride the products themselves. From top to bottom, every binding has its own features that are designed to work together in harmony while utilizing state-of-the-art graphics. There are various series’ of Flow bindings, and every single one of them is prepared for all-mountain destruction. We’re sure that there’s something in the following pages that will not only catch your eye and fit your budget, but that will help you progress your riding skills in absolute luxury.
NXT-Series (FSE, FRX, ATSE, AT, Prima-SE) With forged Aluminum alloy and fiber-reinforced components, the NXT models are the most structurally sound and powerful of any binding system out there on the market. The control that the NXT provides matches the power and comfort that you’ll feel once you strap your feet into them. A rockered aluminum baseplate allows for more flex, a better feel and an overall outstanding ride while eliminating pressure points that some two-strap systems can cause. M-Series (M9, M11, M9-SE, Essence) Flow’s high-performance, luxury model binding offers all the bells and whistles to the rider who prefers the feel of a molded plastic baseplate. With “Snug-fit” design, the connection between board, boot and binding is as precise as it has ever been and makes for a smooth ride across the board, while the fiber reinforced Nylon in the baseplate and the Ventilated hiback make the M-Series one of the most responsive bindings in Flow’s hierarchy.
H-Series (The FIVE, FIVE-SE, Trilogy, Quattro-SE, Minx-SE, Muse) A slightly softer baseplate and Ventilated hiback in the H-Series makes for a mellow ride while still eliminating those bumps on the groomers, and Flow’s “PowerBridge” design gives you the stiffness and responsiveness you demand from a binding. The baseplate is also slightly wider to accommodate boots with a larger footprint, and provide a stable platform on your board. The H-Series is affordable, comfortable and reliable. What more could you ask for in a binding?
Flite Series (Flite 2, Flite 2W, Flite 1, Haylo) The Flow Flite Series are designed for the beginner to intermediate rider and will hold up in even the toughest conditions with Flow’s injected DuPont Delrin (POM). For the soon-to-be superstar, this binding series will stand up to most anything you can throw at it and is also flexible enough to lend your feet some much-needed comfort when you need it most. Micron Series (Micron Small and XS) Built for the young guns that are almost ready to kick into Flow’s adult line, the Micron Series assures that the little guys and girls are given everything they need to go big. A symmetrical design ensures that no matter what their stance is, they’ll be all ready to go once set up on their stick, and a moderately soft flex makes sure that their ever-growing feet will be nice and comfy all day long.
BINDING
TECHNOLOGY
A three-step rotation adjustment allows for customized hiback alignment
hIbaCk TEChnoLoGy
Flow’s hibacks are a pivotal part in the Flow technology…no pun intended. Not only do they fully recline so you can get in and out of a Flow binding faster and with no hassle or sitting down on cold snow, but they also transfer your energy directly through to the baseplate and the board. You will notice Flow hibacks look a lot different too: The tops are quite flat, allowing ample lateral movement for that feel of freedom that snowboarding should give (and tweaking out tricks), while the PowerTriangle cable efficiently picks up the energy from the hiback. • Flite hiback: The Flite hiback reduces weight and gives more all-around flex. A responsive design that is perfect for all types of riding. The DuPont POM material provides a perfect balance of flex and support. • Ventilated hiback: All hibacks on the H-series and M-series feature an integrated back flare at the lower edge. This virtually eliminates any risk of the hiback catching on the heel of the boot when getting out, and it also serves to stiffen the overall hiback structure through enhanced 3D shaping. • NXT hiback: This NXT-series hiback shares the design and features of the Ventilated hiback, but it also features our Kush-Control wrapped hiback pad. This hiback pad increases comfort and dampening, but the uniquely shaped 3D surface also adds drive to the lateral side for more powerful turns or presses. • Modular hiback: By separating the hiback into 3 different zones and selecting the ideal materials, the modular hiback delivers fine-tuned performance and is lightweight. A three-step rotation adjustment allows for customized hiback alignment to the heel edge, and some models offer our exclusive OC-Kush gel-kushioning in the wrapped hiback pad.

baSEPLaTE TEChnoLoGy
All of Flow’s baseplates are uniquely engineered to transmit energy from the hiback and PowerTriangle cable directly to the board, without loss of efficiency, but also without loss of the natural feel of a board. How we do this? By utilizing the most appropriate materials for each level of rider–like DuPont glass-filled Zytel Nylons or T6 heat-treated aluminum–but also by reducing the actual footprint of the binding. The minimized contact area with the board channels your power where it needs to go, while the rocker corners of the baseplate allow your board to flex naturally. This works on all types of boards, and Flow uses this fundamental design on all baseplate designs, even our aluminum ones! Another Flow exclusive ingredient.
3d PowErSTraP dESIGnS
Giving you more feel and more comfort, the 3D PowerStrap increases power going into and coming out of turns while distributing pressure over a wider area. And you don’t have to crank a PowerStrap down as tight as you would with traditional two-strap designs, so your feet will maintain good blood circulation resulting in less cramps, less fatigue, and less cold feet!
I-Flex Strap:
• Ideal flex for freestylers and all-mountain riders. • 3D molded core and internal multiple-panel frame for precise form-fitting to any type of boot. • Deep side cutouts for freedom of movement.
A-Flex Strap:
• Lateral asymmetry at the top for true all-mountain and freeride support and drive. • 3D molded core and internal multiple-panel frame for precise formfitting to any type of boot. • Moderate side cutouts for more response. (CI-Flex) Strap: • Ideal support for all-mountain riders. • 3D molded core and internal single-panel frame for formfitting to any type of boot. • Slim construction to reduce bulk while enhancing overall flex and support.

Flow designs have addressed every aspect of the ideal personalized fit between rider and board, and once you’ve set them up to your preference it’s simply “KICK, LOCK & DROP” every time you go riding: 1. Locking Airframe MINIratchet buckles provide micro-adjustment of the 3D PowerStrap. 2.
