Snowboard leash - the type that goes around the leg with velcro strap?

It's called a crappy one. \nI wouldn't trust the velcro if it comes to needing what the leash is actually intended for. A good leash is one you dont really see.\nFor Der man- like the other response, one that is visible is more likely to get hung up on something.

Several online stores, as well as brick & mortar stores, sell lacrosse stringing kits.  If you're not picky, you can use shoelaces for shooting strings.  I got one I liked from Hot Topic and used it as a shooting string and it worked out pretty well.

Have you thought of just going down to an Army Surplus Store and picking up a footlocker? They are made of wood with steel re-enforced corners, and have a tray insert. With a minimal amount of fuss, you can customize one to fit your needs.\n\n-SD-

If you have a tight budget, maybe consider getting a setup that's not ALL burton stuff. There are other good brands, and burton bindings will fit into any board and any bindings will fit into a burton board. If you aren't willing to consider other brands then try these places:\nwww.the-house.com\nwww.overstock.com\nwww.backcountry.com\nwww.christysports.com\nwww.shorelinesnowboards.com\nwww.boardsforless.com\nwww.snowboarddepot.com\nwww.boardzone.com\nwww.nextag.com\n\nAlso try looking at ski swaps and end of the season sales (now is a good time for that :) hope you find what you're lookin for!

Just buy new bindings. Those 10 year old bindings are dangerous and no shop that I know of will mount them for you. Binding technology has made improvements by leaps and bounds in the last ten years. Not only are bindings safer today than they ever were the integrated ski/binding systems perform much better. Bindings "float" on the skis now allowing the ski to flex correctly through the binding. Do yourself a favor and ditch the old bindings

Must be for style as I was noticing that each snowboarder's pants got lower the farther they were down the halfpipe.\n\nMaybe the baggy clothes act as a parachute slowing their descent allowing for more twists while in the air.

The one that I always use is the 'Clinch knot' - I've never had it come undone. It may look time consuming at first, but the wrap arounds are done easily enough by gripping one end, and rolling your fingers on your swivel. \n\nTry these illustrations:\n\nhttp://www.killroys.com/knots/clinch.htm\nhttp://www.go4bass.com/clinch.html

Try this...\nhttp://www2.victoriassecret.com/commerce/application/prodDisplay/?namespace=productDisplay&origin=onlineProductDisplay.jsp&event=display&prnbr=UP-201655&page=1&cgname=OSBRPHIDZZZ&rfnbr=3102\nI have one, and I love it. They're awesome.\nOr if you're smaller busted, you can just use bandaids. But I like this because it gives you a nice shape without the straps.

Okay, I've been Snowboarding for over twenty years, worked for a snowboard company (Avalanche Snowboards/Universal Bindings) where I was the Assistant Binding Production Manager for 4 years, spent 4 years as a snowboard rental shop manager and now manage a Winter Sports Retail Store.\n\nPlease, don't believe the hype that step-in bindings are dangerous. That is completely and utterly untrue. With proper care and maintenance they are just as safe as the traditional ratchet bindings. People find them a bit more inconvenient than the ratchet type as they are susceptible to clogging with snow, the boots are usually either too stiff or too soft and there are fewer choices of boots to choose from. They are very popular with rental shops as they are much more durable, dependable and fit a wide range of boot sizes more easily than ratchet types. Also, crossover boarders  (former skiers) particularly older ones find it more similar to what they were used to on ski's and find them easier on their backs as there is less bending over. Keep in mind that Step-in bindings are becoming less and less popular and many manufacturers have stopped production on them.\n\nI prefer ratchet bindings myself. I like Burton P1 Carbons and I'm really excited to try out Burton's CO2's next season. I've ridden flow bindings and I don't like them as much. They are very easy to use and very comfortable but I cannot get them tight enough to get the response I am use to. I run a very stiff set-up with my P1 Carbons and Driver X boots. I have talked to tons of people who really like Flow bindings but they just aren't for me.\n\nAlways be honest with yourself about your skill level and style of riding when purchasing equipment. If all you do is cruise intermediate runs then you don't need the craziest, most high performance setup on the planet. You'll be much happier with equipment designed for your or just slightly above your ability level. Companies like Burton, Drake, Tech 9, Flow, Ride and K2 all make quality products.\n\nGiven a choice, get a binding with as many adjustment options as possible. I have found that not all bindings fit the same and the more choices you have to make a binding fit your boot better the more comfortable you will be.\n\nHope that helped.

I had no idea.  I was looking through a really old magazine once...at least 30 yrs old..and it was so funny because there was an ad for no more velcro pads....says something about being free to do whatever you want now.  LOL  It came with a belt I think.\nCan you let me know where I can find out more indo on this.  At the very least..I am really curious about it.\nThanks! \n:)

Didn't find an inventor. Apparently, the practice of binding the ends of a strap dates back to at least Shakespeare's time (see article below), so I don't know if you'll be able to identify anyone as the sole inventor.\n\nHere's the Wikipedia article:\n\nAn aglet or aiglet is the little plastic or metal cladding on the end of shoelaces that keeps the twine from unraveling. The word comes from the latin word acus which means needle. In times past, aglets were usually made of metal though some were glass or stone. Many were highly ornamental, and made of precious metals such as silver. Before the invention of buttons, they were used on the ends of ribbons to fasten clothing together. Sometimes they would be formed into small figures. Shakespeare calls this type of figure an "aglet baby" in The Taming of the Shrew. Purely decorative metal ornaments called aigullette are sometimes features of modern military dress uniforms. \n\nIn modern times an aglet is a frequently used example of a common object whose name is relatively unknown. Perhaps due to this, they are occasionally referenced in popular culture. According to the paranoiac superhero The Question in Justice League Unlimited, their true purpose is sinister. According to characters from Achewood, aglets are a key ingredient in a drug called "Fool's Meth."

What you are looking for I believe is called a "Collet",  If you look at a camera tripod with round legs or an adjustable cane you will see how they work.  Do a Froogle under Hardware collet, you should find something.  There is another cheaper technique that uses a loose piece that jams in one direction. You can see these in the hardware store on pipe clamps and on some adjustable tent poles.
