I feel ya. I never got to try them in the water and they are a definite let down. I even went with the Byerly version on the rec of our local pro. The foot bed is terrible, hard, slippery. I thought about taking it out completely and putting my Slingshot liners in them to see if that would be better. Not only the foot bed is terrible, but if you land and your foot slides sideways it pushes the side of the binding from the foot bed and your foot gets pinched in there. This is why everyone has been wearing socks with them. I just think it is ridiculous to have to put on socks to wakeboard, that's what I have snowboarding for. I think I am going to pick up the Watson ct myself. New Marek looks pretty damn good though.
