Snowpress Presents The Annual Innovation Awards To Flow Snowboarding’s Newest Rental Technology: π

Honoring The Best Innovations In The Snowsports Industry For The 2008/2009 Season

SIA is a show of discovery. The innovation and inspiration unveiled often becomes news for the entire active world. The products on display at the SIA tradeshow in the Mandalay Bay convention center in Vegas represent a unique coalescence of science, sport and culture. The editors over at SnowPress Daily spend countless hours of trend-spotting, hot-product reporting, retail researching and pre-show interviewing in search of the most innovative products of the year. In the categories of Culture, Sexy, Skill and Smart, Flow has been awarded the SnowPress Innovation Award for our newest technology, the π rental binding system.

Flow’s all-new p technology will revolutionize the mountain resort, indoor slope and shop rental programs. This patented technology will be first featured in the new high performance Revolve rental binding with π Technology. You may remember the term “Pi” from your high school math class as the mathematical formula for the ratio of the circumference of a circle compared to its diameter. This coined math equation has finally been put to good use in π Technology, which allows the true symmetrical Flow rental binding to rotate freely around the fixed combo-disk using a mechanical baseplate while the rider’s stance can also be re-positioned along the central axis of the board and adjusted to the toe to heel ratio. This tool-free simple set-up is the quickest, most user/shop friendly rental binding system and allows for easier storage in shops since the binding can be removed just as fast as it was put on. Combined with the New Revolve binding’s core technology and speed entry system that features Flow’s Reclining Hiback, 3D-Powerstrap and PowerTriangle, the rental business will never be the same.
