Just remember, the fins go in the front. It's backwards from a surfboard..... with a kiteboard directional, the fins go in the front.




don't believe everything you read on the Internet....

For a newbee wide and loose straps might be fine, indeed.

But for experienced waveriders, it is more a personal matter.

I for one, HATE loose and/or wide rear straps

The front strap, yes - indeed there should always be half or one inch further distance between screws, as your foot is twisted

But for the back strap - it must not be too wide nor too lose - but should have a firm grip (IMO), so you can really perform and push or pull with force, and you will get amazing aerial options


To the O.P. it does not matter, as it will come much later, so loose straps are fine as you have to learn jibing and getting in/out etc - but would just mention this to others, as straps are not a "journey" towards strapless, nor a thing you have to live with - it is a whole other ballgame with many extra options and more power
