yes, the Power Grips are angled so you need to angle out your foot, heel out, to get in and out. pull your foot backwards without angling the heel, and you ain't coming out. obviously sideways movement of the foot is constrained by the strap.
the angle of the strap is fixed, but the length of the strap around the foot can be adjusted. getting in and out becomes instictive after a while.
regarding the removal of the pedals i hardly ever do it. when i do i leave them on to act as bumpers so the bike itself or the drivetrain are better protected. but that's just me.

How often and under what situations do you remove the pedals? I see that this can create an even thinner profile, but I'm trying to picture just how I would take advantage of it.
