I,v found the NSI stick on pads and straps the best.
I tried the preditor straps but didn,t find them as comfortable as the NSI.
Also I ripped the preditors off the deck.
It seems theres to much leverage to rely on one small sticking point for the straps.
hope this helps.

Sex wax or mrs palmers,because you are continually moving your feet around.To position the straps in one position may enable you to carve but to motor along you need your back foot in front of the fins i find,so it may be worth you riding your board without straps.
Its a bit tricky at first but it wont take long to master,so get out there and cause some carnage.Best of luck.

Predators are good, but they need the activator for the glue pads to stick well, once you use the activator, they will not come off your board easily.

The Surftech straps are excellent, they are part of a large stick down pad, only bummer is they are still not available from the importer. I've seen them on a Surftech team riders board and they look like they are the best solution out there to convert a surfboard easily.
