The flex is why I have always avoided the channel. I've never understood how embedding two metal bars in a snowboard is going to make a board better. But you seem like the man who might actually know.

yeah...I think it's not the smartest thing burton has done. I guess they went for strength over performance like building a binding that will never break, but is also a dead turd.

FYI, Aluminum is flexible. It is not some dead piece of steel under foot.

I did have an old Capita Totally Awesome that had it, it was fine, but I never changed the stance after the initial set up. The whole notion of adjusting the stance for powder just does not compute, particularly since many boards either have some sort of early rise or taper anyway.

BTW, graphics back then were so much more fun:
