Check out my YouTube channel, I'm

Was already following you lol.  That terrain looks amazing for progression and looks like a blast.

At the very end of the video I notice you were able to rotate your binding.  Is that one of those Quiksett gadgets?  Do you use that with the Trenched Canted Risers?  I saw an ad for them a while back and wonder if they're compatible

@carveaddict75 Hi - the channel was an easy way to share videos with my riding friends. Glad you have checked it out. I'll be adding some cool videos from last season soon.

The device I'm using is called a "Swivler" and were available in the late 90's and early 00's. I started using them to limit the stress on my front knee during the chair lift ride. After 32 years of skiing, my knees were really in pain, and I was contemplating surgery - but in 1997 I thought I would try snowboarding as it looked a lot less stressful on the knees. I've been boarding ever since.

I was able to buy 3 sets as I added boards to my quiver before the company shut down. The rear plate is fixed, only the front does the swiveling, and they give ~3/8" rise to the bindings. I got silly a couple of seasons ago and put a set on my hardboot setup and unfortunately ripped the front unit apart in a freak emergency situation midway up the mountain - walking down sucked. The other two pairs are holding up well and I have them on my two heaviest boards.
