Tying on harness lines

Postby KimAndersen » Sat Jan 08, 2022 10:18 pm

Hi everyone

I plan on attempting to wing with a harness.

My wings (Wingride 3) doesn't have attachments points for harness lines, so I will be attaching the harness lines directly to the handles.

I expect that i might need to adjust them a few times, so hoping someone can recommend a good knot for tying them on. So that they sit firmly, but can also easily be adjusted.

Kind regards

Kim

I use this one,with a stopper knot on the free end.It strangles the handle so you can place it anywhere, 3mm paracord is strong enough for wings.
