Recent rule changes in 2018 to the Laser class included changes to the hiking strap adjustment system.
ILCA stated“The hiking strap supporting line, between the aft end of the hiking strap and the eye straps on the aft face of the cockpit, may be rigged in any manner so that the hiking strap is fixed or adjustable and may include one cleat; one ring, thimble, or shackle; or both to allow for the addition of one cleat and one turning point in the hiking strap support line that are not attached to the hull or the hiking strap”
Adjustable toe strap systems for the Laser sailboat using rope and friction were always a compromise to fit the rules, but with the Clamcleat Aero Cleat supplied by Sailing Chandlery, you can have a system with secure adjustment and a real positive feel.
Introduce a Clamcleat Aero Cleat (CL828-68) into your adjustable toe strap line and you have an extremely effective solution, giving a real feeling of security and confidence. It provides a strong foot hold with consistent settings when cleated and no drop in performance or wear. It is quick and simple to setup and is easily adjustable from both sides of the boat when sailing.
It is the first adjustable toe strap system for the Laser that actually works, allowing me to hike out to the max!

Perfect for the job!
These were recommended to put on over my Gill dry suit.
Bought a size bigger. We’re a bit tight but getting better, easy to pull on and off with the heel tab. Good soles and grip well on my board. My feet are so much warmer so I can go out most of the year.
Rope offcut easily ordered, as described, and prompt delivery. Good service all round
Delivered very promptly and well packaged, worth the shipping charge to not have to fetch it. Haven't sailed with it yet but have rigged it with the outhaul fittings and everything seems fine.
It is a good buoyancy-aid it has a nice size pocket and is really comfortable to wear. They also have fast delivery and great customer support thanks Jason.
I bought these hoping they be ok as prizes for our Topper Traveller, but was concerned they wouldn’t be robust given the price (in which case the 3 sailors in the family would get them).
I was happy when they arrived. They are more robust than I thought, and super lightweight, but with a grippy palm part. They’ll be great for use in the summer on their own (lighter than neoprene) but robust enough to protect hands, but also good enough to be used as a base layer in the winter.
Happy that we were able to use as prizes.,
It’s stretchy and can tie in knots.
Does the job
It’s blue, has an open bit at the top and holds stuff. Yet to try the dry feature.
Great service, quick turn around for the job.
nice neat job when it arrived. Would not hesitate to recommend to further members at our club. Well done 10 out of 10
