Title: Native Easy Footbrace System In A T13?
Post by: Cutthroat Chris on May 04, 2010, 08:48:43 PM

I can't stand the stock footbraces on my T13 and am thinking of getting these. Their nice and big and set at an angle. Anybody done this? I'm sure the holes wouldn't line up but that's ok. I was also thinking of just changing the foot pedal if I can find one that's set at an angle and fits the T13 slider system thingy.

Well, I like my Native footrests  (same as the kind you linked to) much, much better than the small, vertical-faced ones on my Tarpon. They are a lot more comfortable to push against with your feet when really paddling to make distance.
I think Native Watercraft makes some longer replacement footrests that are even more comfortable, but I'll have to check up on that again.
I think you can get the "Wussie Foot" pads for them too.

I say, "Go for it!"

I know it's been done, but that's about it.  I think they were actually installed on a Tarpon.
