    Looks like you'd have to keep fixing them back into place,they don't look secure enough for big breaks. Would hepl the pain alot tho. Still trieng to find a pair that dont hurt or rip the top layer of flesh of your toes.

    Well I'll soon find out as I ordered a pair:DBig breaks like at Castle blinken freak maybe,but your man has done his research and swears once they are set upright they do not fall off.Plus the one size fits all sells it too me I have big feet!!:o
    Also my kick rate is dire so these should helpin that area.
    Oh and by the way they can be used for regular surfing also.

    They are OK - use them for kneeboarding - but after prolonged use I found they cause some pain with circulation restriction.

    Also, for tose of you with legs of a - lets say - hirsuite nature - not to be used with boardies, dear jesus no.

    Over a wetsuit, OK - they do work. Some BBoarders use them with fins apparently for the extra power.

    Designer was interviewed on worldsurfradio.com some time back, it will be in the archives somewhere
