You know I have no trouble getting these Tubbs on and off, on in less then 20sec. and off in less then 10sec. The bindings lock your foot solid into themselves and the bindings piviot. Never fell yet, and not uncomfortable at all.
I took care of the small noise problem, I painted them white, then coated the bottoms with industrial grade contact cement (spray on) The little noise that there was is gone
Not that it was a problem to begain with, three of us (all wearing Tubbs) walked up to a slough that had a coyote sleeping in it. (we didn't know it at the time) we were within 125yds of her. She came out of the slough, streching and yawning after the first set of calls...... And then went in the back of the truck
Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
