I tried boarding and gave it up all in the same season. My knees couldn’t handle it. But maybe my experience would have been different if Twisted Bindings had been an option. The rotating binding mount allows a boarder to rotate her front foot to an angle parallel to her board for easy, comfy maneuverability on catwalks and in lift lines.
