Ok so I got my booster straps for my lange comp 120 freeride boots and i have a question on installation. Do I put holes in teh back of my straps so I can attach them to teh boot via teh 2 screws in the back or do you not attach the booster to the boot at all, like just slide it in place and tighten. A response would be really helpful cause im lookin to try um tomm. And i know this shouldnt be in ski grabber but i figured id get an answer quicker. Thanks.

i dont put the screws in mine and they easily stay in place. i would think holes would make the strap more suseptible to snapping later on. just my opinion tho

^ Yeah, burn holes where the screws are going to go, then screw them into your spoiler.

heat up a nail with a blow torch for optimum holeage.

the screws are from your old strap. and this whole thread is about making your own holes in the boosters which have no holes

Just rivet it on. Problem solved.

This depends on your boots. If need be, you can drill a small hole in the back of your boots, then put a screw into it to hold the strap on. I love my Booster Straps. They saved my evening tonight when my top buckle exploded.

You're supposed to put them inside the shell, but I have kryptons and their flex has a lot to do with the shell tongue, so I keep them on the outside.
