Anyway I'll take a break for a while.
You need to come back. This place is getting stale without you. I think Ron is getting lonely and I don't think he get's my sense of humor.

He's not coming back... He thinks we are all troglodytes for being pinners!
I think it was your comments that sent him over the edge!
Personally, I was very interested in his/their stand-tall tele method..
But your humour drove him off you NNN hater!!! :o

I'm rather impartial actually... System bindings aren't for me, but there are plenty out there who use them. I'm just old fashioned I guess...

I think it's just an issue of what is going to work with a REASONABLE amount of effort in some given condition..
Skiing this with my XCD gear with 3pc would be delicate, but on system gear it would just be pointless and pretty dangerous really.

Not as dangerous as Johnny's ramp!

PS He hasn't posted anything since then, I hope he's not injured.

Cima I hear that there is to be a triple-bar NNN/BC binding : One under toes , 1 under arch and one under the ankle..Said to be the most stable NNN ever! Have you heard of this ? :lol: :lol:
Pay no mind to Mike..He's just being silly!
But seriously, if there were a 2-bar NNN (one just behind the ball of the foot and one directly under) it would hold a lot of XCD promise when paired with a supportive and stiff skate-type boot. :D

You have to be careful with me. Sometimes I'm being silly, other times I'm dead serious. It's up to you to decide how to take it.
