A reconfigurable wakesurf binding apparatus and system is provided. In certain embodiments, the wakesurf binding may comprise a top surface of a wakesurf board having a longitudinal axis, a first pair of female threaded inserts in the top surface aligned along a first axis angularly offset from the longitudinal axis of the wakesurf board by a first offset angle, a first strap having a first end comprising a first matrix of holes therethrough, a second end comprising a second matrix of holes therethrough, and a longitudinal axis, wherein the first strap is configured to be removably interconnected with the first pair of female threaded inserts with its longitudinal axis at an angle offset from the first axis, a second pair of female threaded inserts in the top surface aligned along the longitudinal axis of the wakesurf board.

Reconfigurable wakesurf binding apparatus and system

A spin-tightened snowshoe binding is provided, the binding comprising a sole plate configured to be hingedly interconnected to a snowshoe an axis extending transversely with respect to the longitudinal axis of the snowshoe, a toe cap interconnected with the sole plate with a first anterior strap and a second anterior strap, wherein the anterior straps are configured to wrap around the medial aspect and the lateral aspects of a toe box of a shoe inserted within the snowshoe binding, and wherein the toe cap is configured to interface with a top aspect of the shoe, a first lateral strap extends outward from the sole plate, wherein the first lateral strap is configured to wrap upward along a medial portion of the shoe, and extend toward a posterior aspect of the shoe, a second lateral strap extends outward from the sole plate, wherein the second lateral strap is configured to wrap upward along a lateral aspect of a shoe, and extend toward the posterior aspect of the snowshoe binding, a belt having a first end and a second end, the belt slideably interconnected with the distal end of the first lateral strap and the distal end of the second lateral strap, wherein the belt is configured to span around the posterior aspect of the shoe between the distal ends of the lateral straps, a tightening dial interconnected with the toe cap, a cable interconnecting the tightening dial, toe cap, sole plate, lateral straps, and first end and second end of the belt, wherein rotating the tightening dial in a first direction tensions the cable, and wherein rotating the tightening dial in a first direction retracts the toe cap toward the sole plate and retracts the first end and second end of the belt toward the toe cap.
