In Response To: Skin-on-Frame: foot braces (bueller)

: I am ready to skin a yost(sea rider). There dosnt seam to be room for foot
: braces at least not for my feet. Maybe my wifes but I dont see where to
: put them. Or can I go with out on this narrow a kayak?

My feet are against the frame, not the ideal but it works.

Some have put an intermediate stringer between two frames and attached commercial footbraces on that stringer.

The foam method (minicell) works too.
