Best set up ive ridden so far and about to get better. Dual climbing wires are a must!!! December 26, 2010 at 5:13 am #617538 PowderNewb 24 PostsDoes the mounting of the ski binding make it somewhat awkward being centered? As I’m sure you know most alpine ski’s have the bindings mounted closer to the rear. December 26, 2010 at 11:59 pm #617539 Pow-D-Rider 48 PostsPowderNewbFor general touring with a splitboard, the Dynafit toe piece with a Sparks Dynafit adapter plate works exceptionally well (better than soft boots) for touring, traversing and skiing down (intermediate slopes). I don’t think adding the Dynafit heel piece, is much of a concern for general touring and skiing smaller slopes. (hills that you would not transition to ride via snowboard). In fact, adding the heel piece can affect your snowboard stance width substantially. December 29, 2010 at 4:45 am #617540 hyzerbomber 46 PostsNewB- One thing I have noticed with the positon of the Dynafit placement is the tail of the ski drops quickly due to the forward placement which is nice for breaking trail or kick turns on steeps. Side-stepping either up or down hill has been problematic, having the heel to lock down has been very nice for these occasions. The extra height in the riser is a plus too. This set up was board first and option for ski’s second. with that in mind it was more about getting the bindings on the board and less about fussing on the placement to be accurate for being a pair of skis. As Pow-D-Rider mentioned it will effect the stance, I’m 6’5″ so the width between feet is not a problem. Just changed my angles and currently at 13Deg front 3Deg back and 22.25″ wide. Really like the new angles. Just wish my Prior was as wide as my old Super Charger 73, But I do not ride my split inbounds.(( Donek Hazelwood )) • Solid / Custom / 173 Length / 28.9 Waist / CATEK (( Donek Hazelwood )) • Split / Custom / 173 Length / 28.9 Waist / Spark Dyno DH / Phantom Rocket Risers / SpeedTurn Toes&Heels January 3, 2011 at 11:24 pm #617541 madsadsalad 9 PostsI have been recently playing with a similar idea. A mad combination of all the crazy technology out there. My idea was to use an interface from a clicker binding with the cleat in the back and bottom of the binding instead of the boot. The cleat interface and release would be small and minimal and mount on the heel-side of the board. Two Burton EST channels on each side of the board (four total) would be fantastic. They make even more sense on a splitboard. A simple fixed attachment on the toe side with a pin on the toe of the binding. Then a dynafit interface on the front and rear of the binding not the boot. That way one could use soft boots. The bindings would give you all the rigidity you would need for basic skiing. I hate hardboots–it’s one of the main advantages of snowboarding in my view–and if one is going to use them, you just as well ski. Then again, I know how to ski. Hmmmmmm. Those Rossignol S3s and Dalbello VIRUS lite boots with dynafits looks like a pretty cool setup. 😉 January 4, 2011 at 8:20 pm #617542 hyzerbomber 46 PostsLike the idea of the tech mash-up. The quad channel idea makes much sense and could offer the most minimal interface for board mode. I imagine that continued small-time MOD innovation will lead to better choices for all of us. Would love to see some of the bigger Co’s take a gamble in this small niche market, I Imagine that those nordic engineers would/might love to sink their teeth into this than another ski-break design.(( Donek Hazelwood )) • Solid / Custom / 173 Length / 28.9 Waist / CATEK (( Donek Hazelwood )) • Split / Custom / 173 Length / 28.9 Waist / Spark Dyno DH / Phantom Rocket Risers / SpeedTurn Toes&Heels January 4, 2011 at 11:57 pm #617543 treepilot 352 PostsI just got my dynafit heels mounted. Haven’t had a chance to get out on them yet, but I’ll post an update when I do.Stance is identical to my soft boot setup (never moved the pucks at all when I added the Spark adapters). The toe piece is now mounted direct to the board as well.Probably a bit heavier than the Voile climbing wires, but dual height, more durable, and the option to lock the heel when needed.15 and 0 degree stance, roughly 22.5″ wide on a 166 Prior Spearhead allowed Did someone say mono-ski? Hmmm… guess it’s already been done! They seem to be serious…. me, not so much! January 5, 2011 at 12:04 am #617544 treepilot 352 PostsI just got my dynafit heels mounted.

January 5, 2011 at 7:41 pm #617546 madsadsalad 9 PostsThat is so damn slick! Maybe hardboots are the anwer. Perhaps the virus boots with that setup. Nice work. Decisions, decisions. I wish I had more money.

Cant wait to hear how you like the new “multi-tool”!! I too have went back to a more neutral stance and really liking it. Need to get some better hybrid-binders, went back to the mtn plates for weight reasons only. Prefer the catek’s but way heavy. :headbang: :headbang:(( Donek Hazelwood )) • Solid / Custom / 173 Length / 28.9 Waist / CATEK (( Donek Hazelwood )) • Split / Custom / 173 Length / 28.9 Waist / Spark Dyno DH / Phantom Rocket Risers / SpeedTurn Toes&Heels January 6, 2011 at 8:27 pm #617549 PowderNewb 24 PostsWhy did you pick the virus light over the tlt5?

Seem to be the bomber ones, but not exactly :scratch: (without all the E-pads thing …) Did i miss something ? 😕 January 7, 2011 at 2:57 pm #617551 treepilot 352 PostsVirus light?These are what bomber looked like last year before the new padded one came out. February 18, 2011 at 5:37 pm #617552 JimmyC 351 PostsAwesome looking setup!!! I am unfamiliar with hardboot equipment but I am certainly intrigued. Just curious, is there any options for utilizing crampons with the Dynafit TLT toe piece? February 24, 2011 at 10:56 pm #617553 hyzerbomber 46 PostsHave not tried these but have known about them for a while. Seem pretty straight forward and have some other cool mods for older dynafit heels too.http://www.bndskigear.com/fatcrampons.html(( Donek Hazelwood )) • Solid / Custom / 173 Length / 28.9 Waist / CATEK (( Donek Hazelwood )) • Split / Custom / 173 Length / 28.9 Waist / Spark Dyno DH / Phantom Rocket Risers / SpeedTurn Toes&Heels February 25, 2011 at 4:08 pm #617554 JimmyC 351 PostsCool–thanks for the info hyzerbomber!!

May 28, 2011 at 7:43 am #617556 chrisNZ 304 PostsCan someone measure the size of the toe or the gap between pins on the tow piece of the dynafit binding for me please. these setups look sweet!
