liquid metal is actaully a technology devloped by a small NJ based company that used it in helicopter rotor blades!

That's very interesting.  "Intelligence Technology" was also developed for use in Helicoptor rotor blades (I think by Boeing) and then adapted for skis by K2 (if you remember the blinking light just in front of the binding).  Head bought patent or usage rights from K2 and has been using it in skis for a long time now.  I think they used it for a while in racquets too.
