* 90 degree countersunk drill

@ShaunT Ur boot is not flat on the plate because of the screws heads sticking out. I had the same issue. U will need to use a 90 degree tapping drill to get the screws sit deeper in to the boot

@RGilmore as long as u not plan on using it in a reflex system you will be fine and just need to adjust and angle. I am quit bummed that the Boot did not fit that great in the reflex, regarding they advertised it as a compatible and many people buying the boot for that reason. You can stick with it and try if the angle doesn’t affect you or you make a new plate with asymmetrical Toe hoop holes??‍♂️

Yeah, that‘s the problem I also had. @MickeyThompson

Got mine a few days ago and i planned on using it in my reflex system. I noticed quite a bit of rotation of the boot, meaning it seems that the boot is not straight and the toe cap is twisted. I then mounted the boot as it is supposed to, directly to the plate. It seemes the front is about .4 inch twisted from center. So I cut myself a new plate with a waterjet machine with asymmetrical toe cap holes. Maybe it is worth a look on your bindings? I think a right/left forward specific plate would have been a better option

I would try to be less opened in relation to the boat. Rotate your Body in the direction you wanna go and try to have an immediate pull on the forward arm (1,3,5; left arm and 2,4,6; right arm)
