Snowboard binding highbacks transfer calf pressure to the heel edge

HERE’S THE INTERESTING PART

That tall piece of plastic stabbing the back of your leg is entirely responsible for your ability to stop. The highback transfers pressure directly from your calf muscle to the heel edge of the snowboard. Without it, leaning back would accomplish nothing but snapping your ankles, making it the most aggressively necessary piece of plastic on the mountain.
