The Odyssey boots are similar to the Slingshot rads. A nice tall cuff for added support, a quick lace system and an ankle strap for added support. Very comfortable and made well. The nice thing about the higher cuff and the ankle strap is that it gives you the option to tighten or loosen it depending on the amount you support/flex you want. When boosting behind the boat, strap it tighter.. Taking some laps at the cable? Just loosen it up to really flex your board out on the features.
The Humanoid hardware will work with the Slingshot track system you just need to purchase a new screw to make it work. Humanoid and everyone else ships their boots with M6 screws while the Slingshot track system uses M5. The standard screw from the Slingshot track mount is not long enough to go through the Humanoid Smart Toof claw and connect to the sliding Tbolt of the track mount.
You need to get an M5 screw that is 25mm in length. Once you have this, you just need a washer and are set. I did this mock up using the M5x25mm screw with the standard Slingshot recessed metal washer and plastic washer between the screw head and the Humanoid Smart Toof claw and the bindings tightened down with no issues. This setup felt very solid.
