Straps for the small foot guy.

I ended up buying the nobile 555 and it is a nice board but the straps are way too big and it seems that I can't get them any tighter. So now I am looking into new straps but didn't know what would be good for my small ass feet.
The pads are good but I need to get new straps that will fit the pads.
Any small feet up their in the N.westt? thanks

I really like the NSI straps because they are adjustable so PKH and I can both ride the same board. They are made like a snowboard binding style so you can crank them down as tight as you want.

Dakine also makes a strap that can be adjusted to small feet. They make 2 kinds and until you open the box it is impossible to tell the difference. Basically, the one that works has 3 overlapping straps and when you undo the velcro of all three straps they separate to nothing prefitted or joining. (2 straps come from one side, one strap attaches from the other.) When you reassemble/overlap them, they can go as small as you want. The store will love you when you open their box but they work.

Can the nsi straps fit both single and double holes. I wounder if they will work on the nobile set ups, well I will have to get a hold of them, thanks

I have medium sized feet and rode the Mystic straps a couple weeks ago and they seemed small to me. They had the little ridge by the toes to add extra support there and felt pretty nice overall. Just in case you want other options you can check these out.

When you say the nsi straps you mean the new ratchet straps? well thanks and I will also have a look into the mystic.
