β€œI’ve never been quicker strapping in from the chair with my fase… they are absolutely a convenience feature. Which I love and support. You know when you trying to strap in and you step on your angle strap and then you have to find the hole for the buckles to strap in and your there fidgeting.. Yh it helps with that and if you miss that they work like that just the same so nothing loss more to gain🫑 I really like mine. You might really like yours. Send it”

β€œThis does not look like a FASE issue. This looks like a general snowboarding skill issue. It looks like the rider in the video has less than a week ever on a mountain.”
