So I was watching the X-Games from the DVR and I was checking out Mr. Whites board...definitely not 2010 gear, I don't think the bindings are 2010 gear either. I paused the recording a couple of times and noticed there is no channel or visible inserts on the board anywhere which brings me to my next question. Is it possibly a 2011 board, with inserts specific to his stance or is Burton moving away from the channel? It would make sense to me considering the incredible loads being placed on the binding to board connection that well built inserts would be preferred. Also I have had my rear binding rotate in the channel after some sketchy landings, something that never happened with my 3Ds. Thought I would see if any of ya'll had some inside news.
