Custom/Hybrid Footholds-Yes, it's time for another thread! Padding, show off your trays, etc.#bestfootholdsthread

Definitely not just talking about this thread..
In the past month, I've started 8 different threads, that are basically irrelevant to each other. One about footholds, one about bilge pumps, one about motor mounts, one about thru hull adhesives, one quick question about 5200 and rivets, and one about tapping a head. Quite a few of those threads helped quote a few other people. Is there a reason for you to be a dick to me about it? It's not the first time for you. I don't appreciate it, and I don't understand why you've got beef with me lately. I try to be helpful around here, not piss people off.

I enjoy looking at all the foot holds. Thanks for making the thread.
Exactly.. Roseand you speak as if you've been doing this for 10's of years. In reality, I don't think you know if you are pitching or catching half the time.
I haven't either, but I definitely know when to just shut my mouth and do what has already been done hundreds of times. Especially with the superjet...
Sorry for "dicking" you too hard, lol.. I'm just saying, make a build thread, ask questions there.. So much clutter

I wouldn't read your build thread about putting holds in a square and don't think it's necessary to make a thread for it either. I am turfing a ski with holds and enjoy pictures for ideas on heel stops and such. Keep em coming
Agreed. Thanks @Roseand for putting in the time. It's much easier to search and just look at one thread.

X3^..some of us aren't veterans to the sport, and I love threads such as these simply to pull ideas from for builds, turf combos, padding, heel blocks etc. there are a ton of "how to" on footholds, but I've never really found on like this with pictures of turf/holds, really helps with ideas, wish it had been started a month or so sooner so I could have seen it before I did my holds..

Honestly don't think you need to unless you are doing huge tricks. For recreational freestyle if you shape the pad to fit your feet right you may want the extra tray room more than the extra foothold. IMHO that is the only downside to my Tom's or any other similar style is missing some tray room.

^Yep, double points earned when executed during competition.
I'm almost always in my footholds, so I'm not worried about tray space really. My old toby footholds extended into the tray as much as Toms and I didn't have a problem with them. Toms don't have much of a ledge since they go so deep into the gunwales. I'm gonna shape my padding according to my feet too, so it shouldn't be a problem either way.

What you gonna use to fill the tray? 2 part or the HD pink stuff
And what did you use to remove the old stuff? Specifically reaching up behind where you left part of the tray

Hd pink Eps foam. Those pics are just after I installed thru hull tubes and sealed all inserts and thru hull tubes with West systems gflex. The pump inserts look messy because I threw some cloth over them since I had some excess gflex on them. Hopefully I start on the footholds in the next few weeks.
