I have some Dakine Heel straps with elastic in em. I've always had em and this is my second season starting to do a bit more stuff like backloops, bigger jumps deadman attempts, etc.
The prob is the heel straps take up room under the bindings screw and you need to go and get longer screws, because the screws no longer flush it means u got to use locktite and the screws have a nasty habit of soming undone. On top of that the heel straps have already lost some of their tightness and sit way too far back for support.
I've since abandoned the heel straps and lo and behold can not for the life of me stay on my board as this whole clenching toes bizzo is entirely new bizzo. I know I should learn to live without heel straps cos they're dangerous and Im lazy..yadeyadeya but I like em. Its awesome being able to attempt a move without worrying about the board falling off and pretending to be bait while u gt ur board back-plus I have funny hobbit like feet
Has anyone encountered a similar problem? Got a solution for my straps, suggestions for better heel straps or a bit of harden the f*& up
