About the product
Karakoram Nomad
A summit in mind or the freedom to follow the snow. The Karakoram Nomad is a light, durable splitboard binding for long days beyond the lifts. Built on the foundations of Karakoram’s original SL, it’s a dependable workhorse for new terrain and familiar favourite lines.
The X-Type construction combines low weight with solid support, while the Carbon Nyolite C4 highback delivers response as you drive through turns. The AirPod ankle strap uses independent pressure pods to adapt to your boot, distributing pressure for a comfortable fit without pinching.
Whether you’re gaining elevation or searching for the next untouched turn, the Nomad is built to keep you moving, tour after tour.
X-Type construction: Light and durable, with support for demanding tours.
Carbon Nyolite C4 highback: Low weight and responsive support through turns.
AirPod ankle strap: Adapts to your boot to reduce pressure points.
Included: Bindings and Interface Kit with Ride Mode 3.0, Tour Mode and DualSpeed Riser with Heel-Lock.
For solid snowboards: Add Quiver-Connectors, sold separately.
Technology
Binding technology
C4 Carbon Highback
The shape of Karakoram’s Reactive Highback in lighter, slightly stiffer Carbon Nyolite. Flex 8/10 on Karakoram’s scale.
X-Type Heelcup
CNC-machined aluminium heelcup with cut-outs to save weight. The high sidewall supports the boot and gives grip when traversing a slope.
AirPod Strap
Ankle strap with independent pressure pods that shape to the boot and reduce pressure and pinch points. Made from P-Lite TPE.
Carbon Buckles
Buckles made from recycled carbon fibre that would otherwise go to landfill. Light and durable.
7075-T6 Open Chassis
An open chassis machined entirely from 7075-T6 aluminium. The binding follows the board’s natural twist, with no dead spots underfoot.
Downhill – Ride Mode
Active Joining
The binding slides on loosely, and closing the lever locks it to the board with no play, for a direct connection when you set an edge.
Ride Mode 3.0
The ride-mode interfaces are composite, with material only where it is needed for strength at low weight.
Uphill – Tour Mode
Tour Mode
The touring bracket pivots on a fixed through axle for a stable, smooth stride. Snow clears as you step in, and the bracket releases quickly at transitions.
DualSpeed Riser
Climbing risers in two heights, flipped up and down with your pole basket.
Heel-Lock
Lock your heel to the board on the way up without stepping out. The lock folds away when not needed.
