ROOSTER SAILING INFORMATION SHEET 36
Laser Padded Toe Strap - Rigging and Fixing Tips:
Rigging
We make the Rooster Padded toestrap
slightly shorter that the Laser Centre one – so that you
can make use of the full range of adjustment of a 2:1 system as
shown here - Personally this is my preference - I find that
it has fast and reliable adjustment positions.

Note that the bowline making the adjustment has a small rope handle to allow for fast tightening. - Normally at the windward mark to keep your bum out of the water when you move further back in the boat.
Fixing
Best way to get the fixing holes
in the right place is to use the screws themselves to drive through
the webbing. Make sure that you screw through the toestrap brake
(the oblong blue plastic shown below) to ensure the holes are
in the right place. It is also worth putting a little silicone
in the hole and on the end of the screws to keep the boat leak
free. Rooster has ensured that this product has a long life
by doubling the webbing at the front - as this is normally the
first place the toestrap wears out.
