I got a burton with the stupid ICS, and can't manage to fit a non-burton binding on it, I swore to my self last year that I would never buy a burton product again, but there was a really good deal on this board and I felt that I had to buy. The board I love, but I hate burton bindings; I heard forums/drakes can fit the channel with convert plate. Has anyone tried this, or had any luck with another companies binding.
