I am an intermediate sailor and it is easier for me to get in the foot straps when the straps are closer to the center line. I am using a JP 103 in Rio Vista and have had pretty good luck with the foot straps. I think the board is a 1999 vintage. I am looking to invest in a newer sail that won't over power me. I also think the rocker of the board comes in to play deciding whether you are slogging or planing. I think too much attention is placed on the new boards, it is way more than just a board issue. it is true that wider shapes will help you start learning quicker, however when you get to point of using the foot straps a wider board will need a more advanced sailor.
