Slingshot Verdict

Has anyone tried the Slingshot Verdicts?
I want an open toe binding (keep jamming toes in closed toe boots) and already have a slingshot reflex so I figure a Slingshot boot would go well. I also considered the BOB open toe binding but for some reason I like the Verdict plus it's cheaper. It's hard to find any reviews on this binding and there are no shops near me who carry them. If anyone has tried them - are they supportive? Can you get the straps tight enough? I've ridden Liquidforce Vantages but found that I couldn't tighten the straps enough to prevent heel lift.
If you have any other suggestions for open toe bindings that perform at a pro model level please let me know.
Thanks

what is everyone's favourite open toe binding? (for the few of us that still prefer them)

I'm a fan of bindings with straps (and closed toe... i know not what your looking for)
i love the fact that slingshots straps are replaceable, but if someone wanted to they could make any brand's velcro strap boots replaceable by sewing in another metal D ring with the existing strap material...

...anyway...

I have not tried many boots on, especially in real-time wakeboarding scenarios, but i will try to offer suggestions despite.
if possible, try Ronix open toe boots. the feet-belt system that they have on their boots i think works great for heel lift.
OR
CWB boots with the hinge tech seems to work well with holding the heel down too in my past little experience

thanks for the suggestions
