That's pretty nice lee_m, I'm always looking for things to do with my old expired climbing ropes. Now that I started riding a depower kite with my landboard and hooking in it would be fun to hang around the house ;) in something like that. How did you connect at the top? A big eye-bolt?

Hi dave!
In the garage there are loads of wooden beams to i just drilled a 15mm hole though one of them!:thumbup:
I think its a good idea for me as i have not used my harness yet, so i was getting the feel for it!:thumbup:
