Replying to Did you fill out a survey about ski binding design? Check it out

CTD:
So a while back i made a post asking to fill out a survey for my Industrial Design Thesis project. im no where near done with the stuff for the class, but i just finished up (mostly) the model, and was pretty stoked on it. Im gonna post full pics of the end presentation and stuff, but thought id get some opinions and share the initial images.

a little about it:
the binding itself is all metal, and has releases in all directions. the Heel assembly is a track, that allows the boot lug to stay fully engaged for 30mm of elastic travel before flicking the boot out. the wings allow for lateral ejection at any point in the release.

the red switch on the toe (and heel) act to bump up (or down) the DIN for on the go adjustments, and the toe switch disengages the upward release when its bumped up. the mounting pattern is 5 screws each, all under the boot for zero dead zones.

im gonna post a vid of everything in motion when i get it done, but i just wanted to share the first images.
