Has anybody heard about the new "revolution" bindings coming out by Armada. They are going to have the "Eldar" grind plate on the side to be able to grind forwards. Eldar was looking for a company to join for help in this project and found Armada to be very interested. Well, atleast some people at Armada were interested like Boyd and Ruben Silva who are really into rollerblading. Check out the Eldar site www.Elgrind.com, Armada doesn't have anything becuase they are trying to keep it on the Dl right now.

I see the grind plate (gay!), Where's the proof Armada has anything to do w/ this? I highley doubt Armada is gonna gamble on some inline gay junk!

honestly who needs a bent piece of metel hanging of your shit, just to grind foward?!? What happen to just using the base of you ski?!? Damn!!

I can't wait for those!

Anyway, I doubt they would make bindings ONLY with those grind plates...so if they're removable/optional who cares

how the hell do you grind forward??? doesnt that just defeat the purpose of grinding? if you grind it forward, you look like a dumbass anyways, why add even more insult to yourself by trying to look cool with stupid shit on your skis that makes you look like you cant even slide a box, let alone a rail sideways???

^^ to add to my post before, i think if armada came out with a binding like 4frnts, just a simple bingding with none of this "grinding forward" technology it would be great, especially because armada's a rider owned company, they can make stuff that actually works

What would be the point of that?  There's already several established binding companies that dominate the industry, you'd have to fill a niche to compete now.  By making a binding just like everybody else's they would not be doing anything special at all.

I would, it would make skiing more like rollerblading. I'm much more better at rollerblading.

not only is it not a good idea, its not origional at all. Does no one remember the line soalplate? All that matters is that its a gay idea and it will be vastly un-popular

shut the hell up.

who the fuck cares if its not original? wow line thought of it first big fucking deal. Retro fishboards are being made again by many surfboard manufacturers cause they're sick. are they being original? hell no! but they're making the sport much more fun by providing different boards for each persons preference and also by improving old ideas.

Armada should work with line to make something like the reactors. Great idea Line just didn't get support from anybody. If they both worked together on it it would work. That'd be sick, own 3 pairs of skis and 1 pair of bindings

No, eldar does not make bindings. Armada is just working with them in order to make a binding that is easily compatible with the grind plate.
