Features
With over 15 years of manufacturing snowboard plate bindings and with the success of both the TD1 and TD2, Bomber Industries releases the Trench Digger 3.
With close to three years of development, the TD3 is a combination of the solid foundations of the famous TD1 and TD2 but with all the improvements and changes the carving community has demanded. Over the years, the Bomber Trench Digger line has had a reputation of being a �set and forget� binding. We have no plans to change that with unnecessary adjustments and parts. Keep it simple, keep it strong.
New in the TD3:
Extra Thick E-Ring: 7mm total thickness versus 2.5mm of TD2. An amazing amount of absorption and movement of the binding may now be achieved.
Hard Stops on Bails: No more floppy bails or springs to worry about. All bails have hard stops to keep the bails in their �cocked� position. This includes the Toe Bail for the standard binding keeping it in a �ready� position to make manual entry a breeze.
Hardened Steel Step-In Receiver: No more galled up aluminum step-in receivers that seem to attract snow and ice. The new steel receiver makes for super smooth step-in action and incredible wear resistance. Bomber has added an �Ice Buster� lock-bracket to hold the receiver down that incorporates a sharp ridge to facilitate snow and ice removal from the bottom of the heel.
Through Shaft Design on Bails: No more shoulder bolts! The TD3 uses a one piece through shaft to connect the lugs/bail assembly to the binding. Simple, strong, and on line with the Trench Diggers reputation for set and forget reliability. Bomber Industries has maintained the Micro-Adjustable of the lugs if needed for fine tuning the boot fit.
New Base Plate Design: The new Base Plate for the TD3 has the center section removed allowing you to access the Center Disk for easy removal and installation of the entire binding. Need to remove the binding for waxing or travel? No problem, back off the 4 screws and you're good to go. No need to disassemble the entire binding.
Super Low Profile Toe Clip: The new TD3 toe clip has the lowest profile on the front of the boot of any toe clip out there. Bomber has designed the new toe clip around all current model Alpine Snowboard Boots to minimize over hang that has become an issue with today�s lower angles used in carving. They have also increased the lever arm to reduce effort of clipping in.
Nickel Coated Parts: Bomber has selected a few key parts to receive a Nickel coating for its amazing protective properties and also it's effectiveness at resisting and repelling ice and snow.
Compatibility with TD2: Cant/Lift discs from Generation 2 Trench Digger are compatible with the new, 3rd generation of binders from Bomber Industries.
Same Great Features of the Trench Digger Line of Bindings:
Fully Suspended Binding: the TD2 utilized the concept of suspending the entire binding by incorporating a two piece lower assembly that uses a pad called the E-Ring. This theory employs vibration absorption and allows for movement in the binding. The old TD2 system was based from a 2.5mm thick E-Ring. The TD3 uses a 7mm E-Ring and is made up of a proprietary material designed for Bomber's binder application. The new TD3 E-rings are available in soft (yellow), medium (blue), and hard (red) so you may tune the suspension of the binding.
Adjustable Cant and Lift: The TD3 is available at the time of purchase with any combination of 0, 3, or 6 degree cant/lift disks. These disks rotate under the binding (in 5 degree increments) allowing adjustment of the angle of cant/lift.
Aluminum and Stainless Steel Construction: The TD3 uses strong and dependable materials where it is most important.The Trench Digger is a solid platform that is extremely resistant to failure over time. Bomber offers a 5 year warrantee on their product.
Laser Engraved Settings: The TD3 has easy to read laser engraved angle indicators that are also used to determine your cant/lift angles. This allows you to keep track of your set-ups and be repeatable in your adjustments.
Other Features of the TD3: 5mm hex sockets (key included), 3 and 4 hole compatible disks available and 360 degrees of stance angles.
