Any opinions which is better, NSI Koch straps, or Dakine contour?

these will be for two strap directional, or mutant boards.

Which ones adjust to be the biggest? I have big feet and thick booties. Any ideas?

I added Slingshot straps to my twintip and they work great with my booties.

The dakine ones that allow feet to go in either way. Attach them straight and then duck your foot to lock in. This has many purposes. Boardspinning not locked to full rotations can stop at 180 360 540 whatever. Safety you spin your foot straight and come out easy but turn to lock. Leash pulling board towards you , you don't have to look which way to put on just put on cause it will be right. SYMETRICAL BOARD.

NSI are too soft, confortable but not so good boad conection. ( I have last year model, perhaps they are harder now)
Da Kines are hard, some people like them, I dont.
Pads make a big difference too.
