(Better than Freeboard) Bindings! finished 3d printable design in post#209!

I missed this threads progress till I saw @danile updates on Instagram.

Great job!! :heart_eyes: I need this in my life.

Here’s some input that might have been helpful earlier:

-They gotta be tough. I routinely pick a 30lbs board up by a single binder and do short runs/jumps on foot around traffic/obstacles. Two hands needed for Baja (50lbs+)

-I have countless holes on the top of some of my bindings because it’s a great place to mount lights.

-the L bracket adds important mounting placement length if you do not want to drill into a board.

Perfect, thanks! When you take your board by 1 binding, does it flex a little? I mean the black plastic part?

You can interface directly to the 8020 profile, can be a sturdy mount for pretty much anything

Also, 50lb is no issue at all.

This is a pretty awesome design. I’ll definitely print myself a set in petg and order a base plate once you’re ready.

Also, what would be the best way to share a .dxf file? For the base plate?

Super cool. Are they lighter than FB ?

Let’s see… FB baseplate = 188g

FB foot hook = 104g

FB hardware = 15g

Single binding = 307g / 10.83oz

Pair bindings = 615g / 21.69oz / 1.36lb

What say you @danile?

Looking great! One thing I would consider is making the area marked in this picture a little thicker. 20190508_113703

I’ve only ridden with bindings and I put a lot of force on them. That area is the only one I see being the weak spot. Otherwise this looks solid and I eagerly await its release!
