What is the best way to break in new wakeboard bindings?

Question

I just got new bindings and they are very tight/stiff around the ankles.

Answer 1

i put a baseball in each binding way down in at the base of the heel, wet it and left it. it widened it up a bit. to reallly break it in, go out and bust a big one off a fat wake!

Answer 2

The best way is to just use them. wakeboard bindings are supposed to be tight but you should be able to come out of them without much trouble. if you can't do that you could seriously injure yourself like I have. If you have a really hard time getting them off you should consider getting new bindings and trying them on first at the store.
