Hi guys,
I'm having some trouble getting my gear tuned. There is a lot of back foot pressure, to the point where i struggle to keep my front foot in the strap.
I've tried all the usual things, more / less downhaul / outhaul, mast track & boom position.
I've been using a goldwing 32 that has been shortened a bit thanks to a rock, the profile is ok. It feels fairly good above 30knots but unmanageable at anything under..
Has any one used this combination successfully? Is there something i'm missing?

What board are you using?

What position is the fin, in relation to the back straps?

To balance you foot pressure try lowering your boom. To high at the front will unload your front foot and put more load on the back.
