Hey, im looking for new footstraps for my Speed raceboard. Weight doesnt matter. Single screw variety. Must stay standing up n work well with booties. (Size 11) Which brands what model?

Fanatic straps are great. But then again most straps these days are all good quality.

Will check the unifiber. Was looking at Dakine Primo. The board has old round single screw nylon plugs. But the top is raised above the deck by about 3mm x 20mm dia. Would Cobra style anti twist plates work?

I only know/use the Drake UltraLight footstraps (Starboard) and the Fanatic footstraps. The Starboard footstaps (especially for the iSonic slalom boards) are quite short for big feet but sit very firm and stay very light when wet. The fanatic ones are very comfortable (as well for big feet) but get heavy when wet. But as already mentioned by ka43 you will get happy with all modern footstraps :-)

Now days it's like asking what's the best flavor of ice cream, they are all pretty good.

I have the NP race straps on my Eq2. Nice and big but adjust by removing and using different screw hole. $12 each in Perth

hi olschool i got them plates on the eliminator work fine but you have to back them up with a washer as they designed for bigger screws

Dakine Primos mounted with the Cobra clamps works well. No rotating of straps + they adjust plenty big enough for booties.
