    I haven’t been able to find any previous threads about foot rests.  We sized up our Skeenas so we have a bit of extra length to use them with BikeRafting. This means we have some extra room between our feet and the inside front of the raft.  I expect we sometimes may not have gear with us and am thinking about using some of the extra material to make inflatable foot rests.  Has anyone else tried that? Photos?

      Matt,

      The link you have “cannot be found” when I click it.

      (looks like I just have to wait to receive my password when my kit arrives to view the link)

      I haven’t made one, but the easiest way would be to fold a circle or rectangle of fabric in half and seal the edges together. Add a top-up valve for inflation/deflation, and add at least one attachment point by sandwiching some floor material into the edge as in this seat: https://www.diypackraft.com/construction/how-to/seat-bottom-assembly/
