Kiteboard Footstraps & Bindings

Maintain Control with Kiteboard Bindings and Straps

For kitesurfing, you can choose between two types of equipment to connect you to the kiteboard: bindings and footstraps. Kiteboard bindings come with boots for your feet to fasten into, while kiteboard footstraps resemble slip-on slippers.

The main benefits of utilising bindings are that your board remains securely attached during a fall, with your feet firmly in place. These kiteboard boots also provide better control for executing aerial tricks. On the other hand, kiteboard straps are very lightweight and incredibly easy to put on and remove, making them ideal for beginners, though many seasoned riders favour them too. Bindings often cater to specific riding styles, so use the filter to help refine your options.

Is It Possible to Use Wakeboard Bindings on a Kiteboard?

Indeed, numerous kitesurfers opt to fit their kiteboard with wakeboard bindings. Most models are compatible with kiteboards, but it is advisable to verify this prior to purchasing. They function similarly, although more advanced kitesurfers tend to prefer kiteboard bindings due to their ability to endure greater torsion. Wakeboard bindings offer a broad spectrum of choices in both quality and cost, expanding your selection of products significantly.
