Still no tracks, just the tuttle, on the Predator?
And small footpads

I wrote it before, the only production free-foil board that makes sense to me design wise is Patrick's Aio 5'9"

About 6 months. Yes I do, they have saved my ankles in awkward crashes a number of times.

Sweet I need to try them
There is a minor trade-off. Sometimes you can inadvertently release them during transitions. I've dialed up the tension in the release mechanism, so this is now a rare event. In my view this is a minor inconvenience compared to the peace of mind knowing that they will release during an awkward dismount.

Same with my harness. The occaisional unwanted release is a small inconvenience to not suffer those major catapults.
How easy are the straps to reset on the water?

Easy, just align the parts, hit down with your fist.
From OP pics it appears only graphics and cut out changes to the new Alien?
I've found the Alien 125 quite versatile and can work with various foil configurations to support different styles of wind foiling.
Using it with the Patrik AIO foil set, I use shorter fuse (95) and low aspect wings for free move style or longer fuse (105) and high aspect foils for more sporty free race style.
A short video of using it with the 105 fuse and 800 race wing:
