K2 Kwicker Splitboard Super light split

Came across this today

http://gearjunkie.com/k2-kwicker-splitboard

They are saying its the lightest split board system ever made, it’s a step in kinda system, from what it looks like from the few pics I saw is your boot locks into a flat type of binding with not support of any kind like highback or straps just snaps in I know about this hmmm would make me a lil nervous hauling down some steeps with just a snap hmmm

What I really like is : The system includes splitboard, boots, bindings, skins, and crampons. It will cost $1,250. That’s cheap

Any thoughts ?

. . . your boot locks into a flat type of binding with not support of any kind like highback or straps . . .

It’s all in the boots. This time around, K2 claim to have addressed the problems that made their original attempt such a pain in the arse. I’m not convinced.
