Club Larcano purchased a Slingshot 140 inflatable and large Phantasm foil.
Any ideas on DIY carrystraps instead of footstraps?

A picture would be nice. Thanks.

You can use a piece of strap or webbing with screws and washers.
Easy to stand on top of.

Don't all the Slingshot inflatable boards come with handles on the top and bottom? I replaced the footstraps on my Slingshot Wizard windfoil board with thin straps made out of old seatbelt webbing from my kids' car seats. I used them when I was using it to teach myself to wingfoil. I could stand on them without them getting in the way and they make the big board super easy to carry. It seems weird to me that companies put footstraps on these huge inflatable wingfoil boards, but at least they serve as options for mounting handles.
