Hi Geoff,

I'm with you on foot strap position. One really needs to adjust to a board. Truly, I think that the designer decides the optimum foot strap positions, and any significant changes from that are a deviation from the sweet spot. Although the contraints of physical size can mix things up a bit, I still think that too many options are simply over rated. Take a great slalom rocker and locate a number of footstrap positions too far inboard is a recipe for a loser. While some may differ about this, I know I how feel. Give me the optimum, and I'll adjust.
