Now I either carry it everywhere with me or have a mini lock in my pants. Lockin that shit up is genius. You&#039;d better call patent pending on that shit. Actually, I&#039;m gonna steal it and run to the patent office tomorrow morning. Sry bro.The most important binding features for me are:
- Adjustable strap holes - depending on boots this is key.
- No steel. Shit gets bent. No flexibility.
- Flexible plastic for tweakability and feel, but stiff enough to support all that charging power. Weight doesn&#039;t really matter. E=MC^2; an increase in mass will lead directly to an exponential increase in energy. This is only good. ha. scientifically speaking.
- Mold the highbacks so they naturally sit more parallel to the snowboards edge. Direct pressure conversion to your heel edge. They are already adjustable so this is probably more of a mounting preference thing... But you could probably make a gimick out of it somehow.
- Fold the top of the highback back so it doesnt dig into your boot when the pressure is on. Just round the top back. Quick like. Maybe extend it a little and then round it off? I like forward lean. This might eliminate the problem I sometimes get.I don&#039;t know. Call up Craig Kelly. He was the mad scientist of all this shit.
