Hey guys i am just wondering about my board its a 134 slingshot crisis without boots. i am going to a camp with the possibility of there being sliders and i was just wondering if there is a specific base you need to hit sliders and kickers, also will i need to slap some boots on it of will i be ok with standard straps.
Cheers guys

Well if it's a normal SS board it should be fine.

Also you can use it to hit rails, but a wakeboard or specific wake influenced kiteboard will work far better. Often with a very flat kiteboard it is hard to ollie onto a rail and alos the flat nature of the board will grip to the surface of the slider a lot more than if it had some rocker.

i reckon straps are better for sliders. so much easier to get in and out of quickly. not sure what sir rowdy is on about, you can just boost up to any slider.
