I wonder if this will catch on? If it does, I think it would open up some new binding bolt patterns. Fun times!

This topic interests me.
I would like to find out more about it before I finish my current split.
I like the idea of less holes through the board.
The trade off is the greater chance of these pulling out since they aren't through the deck.

Guys
I didn't have much time at the show to hang around but the weight wasn't over the top.
The plan shape of the K2 is competely different, like a Furberg with a short radius sidecut.
The machining on the Aluminium was a bit rough but that what they are made of. So imagine they make a core with AL panels and the once the board is finished and edged they stick it in a CNC machine and mill out the channels.
That's how I would do it.

I'm surprised you guys in the US haven't seen this yet???

Cheers



that looks awesome. a handful of the big brands use the end of the southern hemisphere winter to roll out the new stuff for the next american winter, so you probably saw it first.
