Replying to Another shift thread

anyone tried using the shifts like king pins?
after one day on shifts i find the transition annoying...

an idea came to mind, anyone mount the binding so they can lock the heel while using the tech inserts on the toe?

i know you would lose the elasticity and basically any advantage of the shift, but transition would just be a matter of flipping the brake lever over. dont need to get out of the binding and you can pull the skins out from underneath you. I already got the bindings, and im probably not going to replace them any time soon.

is this a bad idea apart from the obvious?
