Smart Track Performance Foot Braces use stout aluminum tracks and a stiff spring to keep the length adjustment locked even when upside down while setting up for a roll. Comfortable, ergonomic foot braces. Easy to use adjustment rods mean no fishing around with your toes to change the setting. Perfect for rudder-free skeg kayaks needing replacement foot braces, kit kayaks or for new kayaks delivered with wimpy foot braces.

Mounting holes are the standard 14.5" on center that most foot-braces use. Mounting bolts and rubber sealing washers are included. The rubber washer goes between the rail of the foot-brace and the inside of the kayak. Put some anti-seize compound on the bolt threads before assembling (We use automotive "white grease" which isn't technically an anti-seize compound, but it works great for this application).

If your kayak came with the all plastic version of these foot braces, the Performance Foot Brace will be a significant upgrade. They look similar to the Slide-Lock Foot Brace used on pre-2016 WS Tempest and Dagger Alchemy kayaks except that the plastic rail and locking springs are replaced by metal parts that stiffen up the feel and hold their adjustment better. For these kayaks upgrading is usually as simple as unbolting the original plastic footbraces and bolting in the new metal ones.
