I want to find a team to make the lightest, relatively durable, and supportive boot/binding system. I think I have the boots picked. Now I need manufacturing and tech support.
Any input will be greatly appreciated.

Perry that is done outside of the manufacturer's circle?

I have tried to contact, and or have communicated with a few people around Tahoe that are either in the industry or seem to have a long history understanding it. I am getting nowhere, probably for a variety of reasons.
One explanation was it cost the big companies less than $30 to make a $300 M.S.R.P. binding. It would probably cost $100 I was told for the system I am hoping will out perform them all.
One guy suggested contacting Burton. Unfortunately I prefer another brand of boots for what appears to be ultimate weight savings with acceptable looking durability. I learned on Burton equipment, and got some great use out of them, but feel Burton doesn't focus on big mtn. (longer effective edges) equipment.
I was a little frustrated and thought maybe someone here would have some type of a mutually beneficial solution. I am a very small person for a male of European descent. I want a lighter package that gives better support.

Ahhhh I see. I am sorry I am of no use with that. But, perhaps other members or readers turning into members might still turn up and have ideas. I will keep my fingers crossed
