gday
just returning to the sport after a six month break due to an ankle injury
I've got cabrinah Hydra bindings which are quite hard (the older white ones)
and i am feeling a little bit of discomfort when I hit chop the wrong way with that foot
has any one else been through this and or knows of a really soft binding on the market
I can see no disadvantage of using softer bindings
cheers

Naish Apex pads and straps are the ducks nuts

Quick question for those of you that use the apex bindings.
Since they fit and lock your feet in so well are they harder to do board offs with? It looks like there is a bit of a wall around back of the heel. Obviously can loosen them right up but then there might not be much support for everything else.

It's just how tight you make them. Back them off a little and feet come out easily. I have found them very very good too.

Boots will give you the best ankle support and cushioning for landings. My ankles were absolutely f**ked when I used to ride straps. Since I've switched full time I've had zero problems.

Drury is spot on tho. After a solid sesh of looping, I feel a little pain in my ankles. As soon as I take my boots off, I can't even walk. Boots just hold everything together.
