use my new backless bindings today for the first time , very impressive very easy too adjust , well worth the money

kited in the river just up from point walter , wind range was between 18-25knts so comfy & great foot support.

( thanks Reg for getting them in so soon )

and how good is the xbow 4 11mtr . a very sweet kite.

im tempted to try them out but the term 'backless bindings' is kind of putting me off. it just sounds wrong and gay

How much? I have really flat feet with zero arch so my flippers are constantly slipping out during powered moves which results in one footed landings. Not keen on the full boots yet so might have to give these a crack.

Kitepower have them for $149 but not available until September.

Maybe as early as next week, we have found the same back door, hopefully some are on a plane right now.
Size M only, which is the larger ones.

Ooooooh... any of them headed to the Geelong store?
I'd really like to take a look at them and test them out. :)

And i take it the Small size won't be in till September? or has that been bumped up as well.

Thats correct Lex123 small will still be mid November. The availability was not so much bumped up, resourceful Reg from WA realised there was another way to order them and get them shipped within the Cab order system monster.
We are onto it too now and hopefully mine will arrive late this week or early next week, along with some more closeout SB3 12M's.

In the meantime, grow your feet larger!

Try the dakine boost footbeds, your feet will never slip again :)
Kitepower have them, Steve have you tried these ? I'm surprised you don't pimp them as they are the ducks nuts !!

Cheers for the advice Rick might look them up.

Hey Rick au I never pimp anything!!

I just let the young ones do it for me, LOL's

Yeah the Dakine Boosts are good, and they are certainly one of the things for people to try, however the Sync's are amazing for foot hold and comfort, miles better than the boosts in my opinion.
Dakine quality is exceptional, and their pad material is unique, none of the other brand seem to use the same stuff?

just do urself a favour... jason at westozkiteboarding.com
get some escalades and enjoy not having your feet come out.. ooo and the extra top end for unhooking is fully worth it

or get some comp straps of him if you too scared to go full backed up bindings
