How to Install Naish Straps and Pads

by Skip Schott

MACkite will set your straps and footpads when a board is purchased in the shop. If you buy a board secondhand or want to reset your footstraps/footpads - follow these steps:

1. Use your current board to check the footstrap/footbed width to set your stance:

Installation hints (from Joe B - Naish Midwest Rep)

  • Use a long screwdriver to gain purchase on the screw. Do not use a power tool until you have the screw lined up properly with a manual screwdriver.
  • Pull out the external adjustment strap to give you more room to set the footstrap screw.
