I need some new easily adjustable straps for my light wind board (Kinetic Freee Slalom)
What footstraps do you recommend?
I've used the usual DaKines, NPs etc (earlier than 2003 if it helps) and have the Starboard Slick Straps on my ST93. I really like these but you can't buy them without a board attached.
Apparently DaKine are bringing some new ones out later this year but i'd like them sooner.

Cheers

the dakine contour strap system really hug your foot and are very comfy - i use them on my wave board. the other advantage is that htere are not bulky at all - pricey though.

Yes, the contours are nice straps, but they are a hassle to adjust.

Yeah, i went to 2nd Wind and they said you can't get them seperately.
That's where i found out about the new DaKines.
I noticed NP have some new ones out.
Anyone used them?

Yep, I have a new set of NP's on my board.

Easy to adjust, I just find that if I stand on them (which I tend to do while trying to find them without looking) they can tend to go out of shape and be a little bit harder to get into.

There OK, buy I probably wouldn't bother again.
