These are not my boots, but this is the same plate and grind bar that I have.

Under my plates

My plates

: Oh, I didnt meant that exact design. But I was thinking on how it connects. I'm not sure if there are any flat spots on your plate. Even so you would need to drill holes then have extensions on the sides to go down to your boot.

: You would need a machinist to cut/bend the metal, or better yet, someone to make them out of plastic. But you could connect it to your kingpins like that and have it V in at the center 1/2" or so. You might want more cause you have larger feet. Take some photos of your plate so maybe we can come up with better ideas.

: : : : I really need some help with my set up. I have decided I do not like my grind bars. The bar is almost as low as my wheels and I have nothing to latch onto. I would like to make some sliders for my Sure Grip Super X plates. I have reviewed diagrams of what others have done, but their plates seem to be flat and mine curve. Any suggestions or ideas?

: : Those look cool, but I still want a little something to cover my plate. I work with a lot of industrial designers and think I will ask a favor for a design and then see where I might go to get it done. I don't have any tools or the ability to do that, but I need something else to get my tricks back.

: : kingpins. Have it bent down in a V towards your plate. I dont know how though lol. I think Lisa is doing a new design. I gave her suggestions. But to bend them costs money she said so I dont think they will change much. I love mine!
