I have a set of the high wings bungees. I was able to get the six wraps on, don't know if they're any different then mine. I bought mine back in the fall.

I tell you Lock Haven was much nicer than Shrevesport. I went to both yesterday. There were 4 kitfoxes at Lock Haven and 3 at Shrevesport. Shrevesport was an absolute zoo people taking off and land ...

That's what I've been doing. I find boating shoes tend to work the best.
I have about 70 hrs also but definitely aware of my feet and the brakes on final. I have the older style c pedals. The othe ...

I want to see if any body has any Mods for us larger footed folks.
Thanks,
