Pedal Recommendations for Hold Fast FRS?

I just ordered a pair of Hold Fast FRS and I know there are some limitations on the pedals you can use, most platform pedals work. I am considering getting CrankBro's 50/50x but I was wondering what other people use.

I have some Burro straps, which are similar to the Hold Fasts on some generic Animal BMX platforms. Requires a little pulling to get them through, but they fit.

I used to use RELoad straps with Kore platforms. Perfect match.

I personally don't like big bmx platforms. I use mini-platforms, I think they're bmx racing pedals. Mine are Sinz brand, $40; I only recommend them if you dont plan on changing pedals often, cus they tend to strip. But if you buy from your LBS then you can get a free replacement pair once that happens. So 2 pairs for $40 is a pretty sweet deal

Btw I use Sofus Francisco straps. Any strap that's designed for platforms should fit mini-platforms as well.
