Buggy Seat Belt

ripsessionkites - 14-4-2008 at 07:17 PM

I've decided to switch over to Buggy Freestyle, until I can get back to longer beach runs, or the playa.

I havent decided if I'm going to mod a PL XR+ or get a Flexi yet. But if anyone can point me in the direction of some plans on a seat belt for the either buggy that would be great.

when I was at nabx, i forgot to take a look of the flexi camp and/or slaweS-P-A-M-L-I-N-K-s setup.

thx in advance.

Are they like a lap belt or like 4 point seatbelts? If it's a 4 point just get a racing/off road seatbelt. Or a chest harness for climbing.

some pictures would be nice. i might just end up making a seat strap like Jellis has for his Libre.

On a related topic, since you mentioned trying freestyle, I will soon have available for sale a on-of-a-kind free-style buggy.

I picked up one of the Fexifoil Team Riders' buggies that was used at NABX. It has a heavily modified back axle for added strength and stiffness. It will have a new seat and new tires.

The seat will have the autorgraphs of Will, Dave and Slaweck embroidered on it.

All proceeds from the sale will go to benefit the Geaorgia Island Sea Turtle Center on Jekyll Island, where I fly. The center has a complete turtle E/R and rehabilitation center.

I will also use the sale of the bug to promote the First Annual Jekyll Island Buggy Bash, scheduled for late September. Details to follow.
