I saw this on Chickens board in Morro Bay and I thought it was a very good idea to try out for next season. I'm convinced it will make your foot stay in place much better without using the so hated nose foot block. And I actually get the feeling it will help you turn quicker too. But then I haven't tried. I have tried slalom boards with a small kicktail and that really feels good. But I haven't understood why. Maybe beacuse you get the feeling the foot really will stays in place as I said above. Maybe we could get some answers from Chicken himself.
Will it make you go faster or will it only make you go safer?

Just used one of Chicken's small foam kit on a slightly rockered deck and it feels rock solid! Applied in a very similar way to the photos...Quite subtle, just enough to hold my front foot in position and guide my back foot into place while also helping me increase downforce and grip.
Very nice!
