A SIC DOWNWIND

Boylos

Where was that Phil? Looks awesome. Geez I miss my Bullet

Hey Phill - Nice work.

This may sound a silly question but why do you have yr legrope attached to your back foot when the attachment comes from the front end of your board?

As a natural footer it makes sense to have it on yr right foot when its from the back of the board but when its from the front surely its more practical on the other foot?

yep cool vid

ill take a stab... to keep it from coiling up or getting in the way, by having ot on the back foot it would be stretched some...and also as the left foot would be the rudder foot Im guessing to keep it out of the way

as I said, just a stab and Im 100% blind in the dark

I love your posts dw.

Keep em coming.

Check out the photo's
The coil means no drag
I put legrope on the right ankle to keep it away from the rudder
You can by the legrope from Balin just ask for the Downwind Legrope they're a heavy duty legie and are around $50
