Hi, I recently bought a second hand carbon Trampa skate style deck with F3 bindings and have a few issues getting my right foot in and out of the binding. The binding is bolted on at the widest of the three bolt holes. My foot gets stuck which is not great when I bail...
I was wondering what the best solution to this would be. I had a few ideas but would appreciate it if anyone with experience could guide me here.
1. Drill new holes as far as possible from the existing holes, so I would then secure the biding with the narrowest bolt hole. I would need to move the part of the binding near the middle of the board closer to the middle.
2. Make the existing holes wider and then use straight bolts and washers on the bottom of the board rather than the countersunk bolts. This seems wrong though...
3. Take the board to a shoe shop and hope I can find a shoe that fits me and the board. I'm a size 12 so don't get the greatest selection though.
I am thinking that drilling the new holes might be the best option but I was concerned about weakening the area around the holes and the risk of cracking. I also need to do some research about drilling carbon fibre.
Any guidance would be great, thanks,
Matt
