bryn, what's with the one footed snowboarding? Does designing a binding like this fulfill a need in the market place? Or are you trying to invent a whole new snowboarding style (I know there are already people doing one footers, but is this enough to design a binding based around it?)
Sure if you're an amazing park rat it might be quiet fun, but are you gonna spend whole days session-ing the park one foot styleee? I suggest the one foot doing all the work will soon break.
If you're designing this just to pass your degree then, sure go for it.
But why not design something that would actually be of use to everyday snowboarders?
Here's a suggestion. A real strap binding (ie a proper boot / binding interface) that can be reliably, and instantaneously, released from the snowboard. Why? To release in the event of an avalanche, as the board acts as an anchor.
Your tutors will love it as it has a real and tangible need / market and improves safety. You could also actually make it, how about a retro fit device that slides between your board and existing bindings.
If I was a snowboarder (still, I did suffer 8 years of the affliction but I can assure you, you will recover) that's what I'd want. Even people pulling one footers don't need a dedicated binding for it, design something worthwhile...
edit just to say: snow skates were invented for real "no binding" lunacy, no need for a one footed binding system, go no feet.
