Title: Very Weird/Frustrating Problem!
Post by: Fysh on January 04, 2009, 06:35:51 PM
Hey,
I've got a really weird and annoying problem. It's hard to explain, so I've taken photos to help.

This is how the straps are looped through the 2 metal rings.

My legs are firmly strapped in and there seems to be nothing wrong. But after walking around, they somehow become like (suddenly):

My dad and I had a look at them and nothing seemed wrong  ???

My S-rex's are like that do they have a plastic clip on the other end to hook through ?
I don't bother with the two rings I put in through both and rely on the clip ?

Yea, When I do that though my legs move very freely. Which feels slightly un-nerving  :-\

people use a strap around the knee to hold their knee against the knee bar.

Scan this topic to see some picture of them ?

It's not hard to make something like it that would help ?
