Innovative Design

Because we are rocket scientists at our day job, we understand and study the physics behind skiing. We recognize that SKI GEOMETRY has changed immensely in the last 40 years, while ski boot technology has not changed since Disco was alive and orange shag carpet was in vogue. MODERN SKIS do not require a severe forward flex, they do require firm medial support to drive the ski. The MADJACKS was designed in the modern area, with a moderate and comfortable flex that allows you to drive the ski with SUPERB RESPONSE. And because they wrap around a snowboard boot, your days of boot bang are gone and you can walk like a human being to the lodge. Welcome to the new era of skiing – SKIING PAIN FREE

Real World Testimonials

MadJacks are AWESOME!

“ Honestly, they totally changed my attitude about skiing. I always went along just waiting till my toes got uncomfortable, cold and numb and I was just plain tired. These bindings made a huge difference — plus, I just felt cool having something no one else had.”
— BLAIR SACHS HANEWALL, SKIER, SEATTLE, WA

Thank you MadJacks!

“I patrol with a snowboard but I want to use my skis as well. Unfortunately after wearing snowboard boots for 20 years I can’t stand the thought of putting on the ski boots for up to 10 hours a day. Thank you MadJacks!”— ROD SCHMIDT, SKI PATROL, MT CREEK, NJ

Ski In Total Comfort

Who are we

We are an INNOVATIVE startup in California with a simple, patented idea, why not use comfortable snowboard boots for a great day of skiing?

Let's face it, most of us are on the mountain to HAVE FUN. We don't require world class equipment and we don't want to pay a premium for it. At Mad Jack Snowsports we are 'mad' about making snowsports equipment that is COMFORTABLE, versatile, fun, and affordable without impacting performance.

Our flagship product is a REVOLUTIONARY device that marries the performance of a ski boot with the comfort and ease of a snowboard boot.

No joke about it, we are MAD about disrupting this industry and looking at snowsports equipment in a totally different way.
