Whats the best footholds for me?

[tmetz]

I really don't know what footholds i should go with on the RN. Im a size 13 foot and wear size 14 wrestling shoes. Any idea's... I ride in both backwaters and minimal surf. Any input would be great! I tried searching but I just couldn't find what ones suited me best.

there is minor glassing and shaping to be done though. I think it's worth the extra work.

I think most people here are going to say REVs.

I just put Watercraft Factory footholds in my SJ this spring and love them. I have size 10 feet. My brother also put them in his SXR this spring. He wears a size 13 wake skate shoe in them without any problems. I personally like the WCF footholds we put in. They aren't nearly as large as the REVs though.

In my opinion the WCF footholds look good too... if that counts for anything.

thanks yamaslut...!

They look great!!

But one last question, should i get the foothold enclosure's?

What do most of you guys run?

 

[yamaslut]

the enclosures are a preference thing, but I will say no way, do not get em because really you don't need them to do any of the tricks... I see them as being in the way....

No need for the enclosures.
The REVs are just fine without.

if you get revs install them like in slutties build. If your foot doesn't enter the hold from the rear of the ski then you're asking for trouble with those holds.

Blowsion's Klowners are pretty comfy for my size 12s but I like how much wider the REVs are.

 

[Speleopower]

I've got the Klowners installed and I really like them. I wish I would have extended them all the way forward. The little bit of extra room for my toes and heel in surf stance is vastly superior to a stock tray.

Agree, modded Revs.

i just tried a bunch and ordered the wcf's. I was goin back and forth between those and revs. they're both good, just different so you gotta go with preference. it seems like the blowsion ones i tried (except the klowners) were tighter than jessica alba's (fill in the blank)..even for my 11.5

shoe size you freakin pervs.

ya i didn't mention the service. another good reason to go with that one. thanks waterfreak!

my wcf holds were an easy install on both of my SJs (and others ive installed them on). i wear a size 13 wrestling shoe and had to build it up with a reasonable amount of HT underpadding to get it to where i liked it. IMO, the revs are a relatively "extreme" install, as far as installing a set of footholds goes. doesnt seem worth it to me.

 

[Captain PegLeg]

Revs! I haven't ridden with them yet, i just finished my install tonight. I wear a size 12 wrestling shoe, and there is plenty of room left in front of my toes for bigger feet! Super comfortable though!

 

[tmetz]

no one said anything about the rickters...?

 

[Flat Brapp]

Rev's or WCF. Have both but i prefer the Revs.

 

[Gainera2582]

I hated the revs, but I have a size 11 foot. I have wcf's and I believe they are the best out of all that I have tried(revs, 24/7s, ricketers, old wdk footholds).
