anyone else see these??? looks like it could either resolve issues or create others. Either way looks good.

PBK was using something like that he had developed
on his snowboard in some of his videos over the winter. Never posted any details though.
Can definitely see where it could cause problems.
If you really wanted to, you could probably tweak MBS F-Series Base Plates to get a similar set up on a landboard.

yeah, I remember PBK using them in his video. I think that GNU have a binding out that can be set to do the same thing. I was thinking that it would
be nice to try out this winter. Just think that on a strap where you're feet can fall out, it might make things difficult. Would have to try it out
for a confirmed opinion though :wink2:zero gee - 18-7-2010 at 09:16 PM
I have been looking at this system for the front strap on my surfboard. Right now I widen the front strap and loosen it up a bit so that I can twist
my front foot to a more comfortable and functional position while riding. I think this system would do a better job of it and it should not be any
more unsafe compared to my current loose /wide strap setup. It will only rotate when unloaded. This might be bad in a jump but so can jumping with a
wide /loose strap. However, looking at his jumps it seems pretty natural to hold your foot position in the jump.Kamikuza - 18-7-2010 at 11:28 PM
The guy developing them posts on the kiteforum.com ... supposed to take the stress off your knees.
