The strap looks and feels better than any strap that I have ever rode with. However after about 15 minutes of riding the seem ripped and I ate it hard. But once it had been stitched it worked fine. I highly recomend this strap for riders of all shapes and sizes and all skill levels.

The product looks and feels great, much better than the factory strap I was replacing. It easily adjusts to fit all sizes of kneeboarder. Only problem, and its a big one, was that the stitching that holds the strap to the knee board came apart on the first aerial we did. That was the end of kneeboarding for the day. Good thing we also had two wakeboards. I was able to take it home and resew the strap and it works now .... just would have been nice if the factory could have created a strap that would withstand more than one aerial.

Comments about HydroSlide Kneeboard Shock Strap:
This strap is the best one I had so far. It let me ride easily and get big air. the best part is that it doesn't come off in the middle of a cut or jump and takes out a lot of the landing impact so you don't get hurt on the landing

I was a little concerned that this wouldn't work on my board as it's a different brand, but this is perfect. So thrilled to be able to replace the strap vs. the whole board. Definitely recommend!

Comments about HydroSlide Kneeboard Shock Strap:
Bought this to replace torn strap - as others have indicated, these can break the stitching at the loop at that attachs to the board. We have resown the original to use as a spare, but these are comfortable, easy to strap on, and ride great!

Comments about HydroSlide Kneeboard Shock Strap:
The only thing that wasn't so great is that the first strap Velcro turned to fuzz and wouldn't stick and then where the buckle was, came unstitched.However the best thing is that it has a year warranty and the 2nd strap was great with no problems. Fun, fun fun. I still do recommend getting one for your knee board. You get a much better ride. The shock part allows for a bungee type feeling to do tricks or ride in bumpy water.

Comments about HydroSlide Kneeboard Shock Strap:
I bought a hydroslide kneeboard and it came with the shock strap style strap. The first one broke after one weekend of riding. so i bought a new strap and it also broke after one weekend of riding. I dont know if that is what its supposed to do or not, but i am going to buy the other design strap w/o the shock absorbing strap and see what happens
