Hi All,
I am new to riding a strapped surfboard. I have a Vanhunks surfboard and straps but my leading foot feels like it is rubbing agains a steel plate where there is no padding, and is very uncomfortable. It could be a poor beginner stance but can anybody recommend some good well padded straps that might help me out.

I had a similar issue with the bliss pads on my mako, the plastic housing for the binding was rubbing real bad on the outside of my foot. I cut up an old stubble holder and wedged it in where the plate was. Presto problem solved, comfiest pads ever and a cheap fix

I had trouble with foot straps getting pains on the top of my feet for days later. I have been using north feet straps for years now and have found them to be soft on my feet.

nsi straps are good...............Marty at Delta Designs Margs can prob sort you out.

I just got some Airush straps for my foilboard... $60 a pair and really nice. I had some Dakine ones which were nice, similar in design but I think the Airush ones are better.

The slingshot ones are good too they also do hooks now too. check out there site

Cheers guys. Thanks for the advice.

I use either the Cabrinha surf straps like these www.kitepower.com.au/collections/kitesurfing/products/cabrinha-surf-strap?variant=29843878660

Or the Dakine "Slim" surf straps like these http://eu.dakine.com/w/windsurf/footstraps

Because you can stand on them, they are lightweight, once adjusted to your foot they do not stretch and they are comfy.

I have a pair of the NSI on a Delta board, they are comfy too just a bit bulkier, and you will have trouble standing on them. I need to be able to stand on them because I switch, and it just helps when you move your feet if you can stand anywhere.

Have been using Smook straps for the last 4 years/ soft /Velcro adjustable $50 for the pair
