| Just get um tight, maybe you wont snap your ankle. I had some like that too, but the new bindings are so worth the money. |

Now, that is a good question. I personally wouldn't try any complicated spins or any inverts at all. Wake jumping would be fine though.

Screw the bindings.... Just duck tape your feet to the board.  |

the duck tape might be a bad idea, will your feet still fall out if you tighten the binding really good _________________ Theres a fine line between bravery and stupidity-Johnny Knoxville |
