New 22-Designs NTN Binding

Check out this Link . 22 Designs apparently is licensed to use the ntn patents for this binding.

Glad to see another vote of confidence in the New Norm, although the binding looks a little weighty for my taste.

There's a silly long multi-page discussion of it going on over at Earn Your Turns, if anyone is interested. Thanks for the post.

Duly noted. Here's the thread .

I have to say I'm glad there is development here, but disappointed at what I see.

I'd much rather see a better tech toe tele binding that ditches the messy cables and engages the boot--at the duckbutt of NTN boots--when in ski mode and the activity of the binding is actually the activity in the boot and perhaps a rigid and slightly flexible piece of carbon fiber.

This would be ultra lightweight.

I'm not buying into NTN until they figure out how to make the boots light, perform well and modestly priced. Current boot design is really holding telemark back right now.

Right on!  A prototype of tech-toe + carbon plate has been sitting on my workbench to be completed  Web has seen a part of it.  Good to hear somebody has a similar idea, though it is rather obvious anyway.  I'd better move on to on-snow tests.  I'll post a pic when it is ready for photo, at least.
