Help boots with good grip

   a mate of mine says windsurfing shoes are the best for trapeze boats. i sail a laser mostly but will jump at the chance to do any trapezing (mostly in a L3K) and have no problem with crewsaver boats.

	Boots with a flexible sole will always be best. But forget about the wax - it makes a hideous mess of the boat and doesn't do a lot for grip. Get some pro grip instead - much more efficient and far prettier too!

	Can you tell me the best boots to stand up sail. I use board wax on the boat but time for new boots now.
