Hi all, I was looking at the Cabrinha H1 or H2, has anyone tried both of these to compare? I can not try them on so trying to get some feedback on both the pairs.?Aloha

Re: Small feet footstraps?
Hi!
Have big feet myself, had problem with the FOne strap that comes with the Unik board. It was way too small when I use winterbooties!

Re: Cabrinha H1 or H2 users?
I've used both, the H1 while demoing boards and the H2 on my board. The H2s are very comfortable and secure. I think they offer a good amount of control. The H1s are smaller in the strap area so you're not as locked in. They're cheaper though.

Re: Cabrinha H1 or H2 users?
Both are for sure improvements over the 2014 versions. The H2s have a thicker pad for the tuff landings (have a choice of soft/hard heel insert) and better "fit" adjustments witth two straps for comfort and connection

Re: Cabrinha H1 or H2 users?
Steve, I was wondering if there was a difference with the 2014 and 2015 models. All I could see is the color change, what other improvements were made?

A knock off of the North NTT's. Less adjustment, higher height, and frankly uglier.

Re: Cabrinha H1 or H2 users?
Hey guys, any more insight into these 2 bindings? The H2's sound nice but I worry they will be hard to get your foot into and won't allow you to move your heel to adjust your stance.

Re: Cabrinha H1 or H2 users?
I have H2 on my board, you are right, they do lock your feet in, there is a little wiggle room, but not much. I find they cover my foot from toe to ankle, almost too much as they touch my ankle. But they are great for overpowered sessions, they really feel locked in and safe. When I go back to my old naish straps, man, they feel so lose.Rossta wrote:Hey guys, any more insight into these 2 bindings?

I can do one foots with the H2, so you can get your feet in and out OK.
