Not sure if this is caused by kiting, but likely I think ?
Bruising and numbness around arch and closer to the heel of the right foot (right footer) usually more painful after a kite
I think Im arching my foot too much to gain a harder edge (twintip), solution different straps required or adjustment (little available) ?
Not so painful after kiting on the surfboard
Anyone experienced this ? strap preferences on twintip ? Any remedies ?

i had that excact same thing about 3 months ago. it just went away naturally though without changing my settings. i hurts heaps but maybe have a week break or sumin.

I've had the same thing this week or so!! For about 10 days but it's slowly getting better. Haven't kited but it got worse when I was stretching too which makes me suspicious that it is actually a strained muscle or tendon. And perhaps beach walking / running ...

Found a lumpy / sore spot just where the arch meets the heel.

I ride a twin tip only and had tightened the straps a tiny bit (still some play there tho). The other thing was I did some big landings before it started...

I know that my bro had 'neuormas' on his soles when he was playing squash and stomping hard but this seems to be out of a pressure area.

Will rest and warm up my feet / massage the area from now on, especially with the colder weather. Hope this helps!

Sounds like plantarfasciitis.
Go see a good Podiatrist.

get some boots.

Oh i wondered why i had those gloves and shovel in my car as well.

aparantly underground has some heaps nice straps available at a reasonable cost.

go to a podiatrist. may be able to get some orthotics to help strengthen arches.

anything that can go wrong, will go wrong when rushing to get out there, I know that from experience too

emu oil works a treat combined with the tennis ball

btw, no wind helping too
