8" binding plate on 6" Liquid Force Board ?'s

I purchased a set of Hyperlite bindings and later realized the patterns have changed over that past couple years. I see that an 8" binding plate will fit one stance on the 6" LF boards. My question is can the angle be changed or is that limited as well. I'm assuming that you can change the angle but the boots will be limited to one set distance apart from each other which on the combination I'm looking at will be 23" and that should be fine with me as long as I can make angle adjustments.

i ran into the same prob with my 07 LF Shanes on my 09 LF Witness. There is nothing you can do. Either ride with the one stance or buy new boots. They only make adapter plates from 6 to larger not 8 to smaller. Youll see quickly what angle options you have

I have that problem too and bought the LF Retro kit. Was trying to put 09 Vantage bindings on maybe an 07 LF LE Watson board. GARBAGE. The kit is HEAVY...and I could not get them to hold the boots in place no matter HOW TIGHT.

So...ended up giving my husband the smaller (134) 2009 LF Watson I had just bought for myself. Oh well he's still learning...

Ronix, CWB and LF all make extender clamps. But HL I do not think makes anything to extend the whole 8 - 6 plate problem. That binding plate change drives me crazy!

actionmama, you must be doing it wrong, They worked just fine for me back when I was using LF boots. and you only need to use the inner one, the outer one is just more weight for no reason
