I'm not sure if I can explain this clearly or not, but here's a suggestion for you- take the overlay straps with the fairly good sized holes in it (for adjustment purposes) that wraps around the front of your leg out from under the rear white plastic pieces and put them under the front white plastic holddown pieces. You will have to remove them from the slotted holes that they currently go through to let them line up with where you will be attaching them. When you do this, it will give you some extra rubber, so they will have to be tightened up one or two holes tighter than where they were attached earlier. This will make it easier to get in and out of the bindings, and they will be more comfortable. They actually will fit more like the Ultra Suctions. We've had good success with this method. Let me know if I wasn't clear enough on the instructions. To remove the white plastic holddowns, you'll need a phillips screwdriver, and the screws can be found on the underside of the binding plate.

Just take em apart and loosen em. Just like any bindings you have to break em in. I used to not be able to get mine on while in the water but now they are fine.
