Don’t know how many people who are claiming that doing up straps is just as easy, ever used the originals. Both my brother and I rode them for years and there were definite advantages. There were also some disadvantages, especially if you were in sticky coastal snow where they would occasionally ice up. But in the Rockies that was never an occurrence.

Not sure about the binding, just saw the pic online. The boot is a Scarpa TX pro NTN tele boot, which accepts tech pins. A lot of newer tele designs are using a tech toe piece for more efficient touring. But maybe you already knew that and was just asking about the binding.

I literally wasn't talking about skating, I said riding 1 footed style. OK Mr. Reading comprehension 101. You're right any idiot can skate one footed on flat ground. I was reefering to the ability to ride down a slope (possibly while disembarking a chairlift) with only one foot strapped on. At a minimum any boarder should be able to do that without falling on their ass, just like strapping on without falling on their ass.

the way to keep flat clicker from clogging is to kick the binding while you ride the lift. If you do that with the HB version you'll break the highback. If you don't kick the snow off on the lift it can freeze by the time you reach the get off.

All binding kickers and ski clickers must ride the same chairs.

I can say that for people who ride small midwest hills that you spend more time on and off the chair, tons of people are into stepons/clickers. That said, my SB buddies that have ridden them say that they are not a replacement to a regular strap binding when you're getting after it.
