Don't take it out of context.

To clarify: I don't think I could have removed my boots in time... If I had tried.

Right that's the point....with a board on your feet (straps or boots) you can't flag your body out and avoid putting resistance against the kite when it gets slammed.

With straps at least you just kick it off. If it takes longer to get the board off with boots then that might be a reason not to wear boots in the context of kite preservation.
