What the best footstraps to put in it?
My board will arrive in a few days, and I need some advise about that.
I'm thinking in NSI wide footstraps but they are not adjustable. Does anybody knows a better soluction?
Thanks,
J+

I found the standard dakine footstraps work fine, the important thing is to have them duck enough that your back foot can twist and lock into the footstrap, then the fit is snug and your feet only come out in a big stack.

Maybe the NSI wide straps ADJUSTABLE!!
Yes, now they come in an adjustable model as well.
I didn't use them yet but I'll import a few in about a week's time to try them out.

Did anybody try to remove the footpads (not the straps)? Do they leave any stains if you do? Would like to put my plate-slingshot bindings directly on the WT.
Thanx

I took FONE Footstraps. They are great and are formed very well for the feet that you can give a lot of pressure on the board

Buy the binding model. You'll have an ugly board where the non-skid isn't anymore.
