Rome Katana AW FASE Snowboard Bindings - Men'sby Rome

Product Info

The Katana AW is built for riders who want all-mountain versatility, precise control, and next-level convenience—now featuring Rome’s new FASE™ Fast Entry System. This innovative system rethinks traditional two-strap designs by integrating an auto-adjusting highback, a one-handed FastStrap ankle strap, and a secure Locked-In toe strap for quick, seamless entry and exit without compromising performance. Developed over years of rider input, FASE™ adds unmatched efficiency to a binding already known for its customization and ride feel. At its core, the Katana AW uses Rome’s AsymWrap Platform, delivering a surfy, lateral-flexing ride that still holds strong through carves and technical terrain. The PivotMount strap system allows riders to dial in fit and support with multiple strap positioning options—ideal for customizing response from park laps to steep freeride lines. A medium-stiff flex balances power and play, while the ergonomic highback and AuxTech® straps ensure a secure, pressure-free fit with tool-free adjustability. Whether you're pushing progression in the park or exploring every aspect of the mountain, the Katana AW with FASE™ is a high-performance binding that delivers freedom, response, and fast access in one refined package.

Rome's game changer of a chassis that revolutionized the idea of connected-comfort. The AsymWrap heelhoop features three connection points to the base allowing for a surfy ride, plenty of board feel, without sacrificing tweak or edge-to-edge response.

Auxtech®

A Rome first innovation, AuxTech® is a game changing pattern they use in their ankle and toe straps. Auxetic Patterns are geometric patterns that become thicker perpendicularly when stretched. Essentially a network of tiny hinges that expand evenly when pressure is applied. Best in the game surface area pressure distribution and connected comfort, that’s AuxTech®.

OmniFlex ankle straps

The next generation of Auxtech® powered connected comfort comes in the form of Rome's most responsive ankle straps. A solid state overmolded design engages with a TPU spine to perfectly blend responsive torsional flex and edfe-to-edge power.

ProGrip toe straps

PivotMount strap system

A Rome exclusive innovation, PivotMounts allow you to adjust the position of the ankle strap on your boot with 8 different locations per side of the strap. The higher the strap sits on your boot, the more locked-in and powerful the feel, the lower the strap sits on the boot, the more playful and surfier ride.
