I could be wrong, but I think you're supposed to fit them to your board.

Apparently they really do work!

After reading about them I started noticing these footstraps on various peoples' boards around the club...

AND1 has been using them for ages and he's always smiling...

It's a bit like Rolex watches. They don't work as well as the cheap quartz watches but then they've got class and they set you apart from the ordinary riff-raff.  Wink

I don't know about that, Denis...I had a Rolex watch once, I paid a whopping 10 USD for it, and the hands would get stuck every hour.  I don't think I'd buy one again.  (My current watch has been going strong for 4 years and it cost 5 SGD.  Never pay more than 5 dollars for a watch!) 

But on Saturday, every time I saw AND1 he was planing - wind or no wind - and I suspect it was the footstraps!

Yes each Kovalski footstrap includes a miniaturised anti-graviton generator that disrupts the normal force of gravity and helps lift the board clear of the water to encourage early planing. Kovalski are the first company to have successfully managed to lighten and miniaturise high density anti-graviton generation. Actually the technology was first envisaged in the film "Back to the Future", where the hoverboards used were in fact real, but not marketed because they were deemed too dangerous by parents' groups.

However generating anti-gravitons is not cheap as reflected in the price of the Kovalski  footstraps.

I'll let the cat out of the bag. The secret is not what's on the footstraps but rather what is in it.
