i've had an idea for a binding that i have been thinking about patenting, that instead of just having htem stationary you can switch them around so if you mounte the ski center you can switch them around and it'd make shit better, either that or make a binding that alows you to reverse load.. aka put your bindings on backwards... anyone think this'd be sick? cause i'm starting a business some time soon and i think i may do the whole hting, like solomon, and rossignol

actually skiing switch on skis that don't have a twin isn't really that hard. Skating wouldn't really be a problem either.


As far as starting a trend......that would mean you would have to up you're quiver quite a bit. Skiing w/o poles is easy to do because it doesn't cost any extra money. Skiing with backward bindings is going to cost you money.
