    nothing to do with your bindings, stance, etc...i think it's the mechanics of your knee..to keep it simple the cartilage and ligaments around yourr knee are getting worn down causing your pain, many athletes get this:runners, bikers, hikers, skiiers, etc... buy some glucosamine tablets from your drug store--they rebuild the cartilage, my pain went away within a few days

there are alot of things that could have caused this. you need to do thearapy on it to get it back to health. rest will healp, but you need to massage the knots out of your calfs and your legs. If you can get a friend to help you out, it will hurt but after it will feel alot better. do some things to warm the muscles before you work on them. once you are feeling better, streach and massage your legs on ocasion to help prevent this pain from coming back. try to keep this from happining again by setting your bindings so that your legs bend in a natural way. if your knees dont bend correctly then that could be why your are getting this pain. I hope that was helpful and I hope that your riding can continue pain free. good luck and have a good season.
