Where is a good place to purchase a new one or two of these? Mine seems to short as my loop keeps coming loose of my harness and it is a scary thing.
:shocked2: Also it has some cracks in it. Is this a certain type of neoprene or can I find a piece of firm tubing that will work?
Any info will be charished :singing:

Uh? Usually, they're just made out of 8mm PU tubing from the hardware store ... and usually, they're stitched in as part of the CL You USED to be able to buy independent parts that velcro'd to the spreader bar ........macboy - 6-8-2011 at 06:43 PM
I bought a few off Angus I think......Peter Lynn DD's. Seem simple and very universal.flexiblade - 6-8-2011 at 06:51 PM
If you're using an arc with this kind of safety -
you could just use a carabiner - much simpler to employ at the beginning of a session and will not have the premature ejection that so many kiters
experience at one time or another in their lives. If this doesn't work I would see a doctor.rtz - 6-8-2011 at 07:07 PM
Made universal by the fact that it attaches to the spreader bar and not the chicken loop. It also means you don't have to worry about the free end
trying to mate with your epidermis.
5/16" black rubber fuel line and a standard zip tie... cut the tubing to length (trial and error method) and trace the zip tie thru it, around your
spreader bar and back thru. As you fasten and tighten the zip tie, the ratcheting head will jam in the end of the tube and prevent it from slipping
off... unless you bail hard.
It ain't sexy but it gets ya back in the game...rocfighter - 7-8-2011 at 01:41 PM
Thanks every one.
Kami mine is held on the chicken loop with a screw and nut. I think it was origanaly velcro. I think for now I will just look for the right size flex
tubing. And maybe order the one that velcros to the spreader bar.Kamikuza - 7-8-2011 at 06:55 PM
I think it's just the stuff used to air-compressor tools ... pretty unclassy to see it printed on the CL and donkey dick but oh well
