<h2>By: Pinhead69<a name="top" id="top"></a><br />
</h2>
<p>Probably one of the most genius of mods from Pinhead69, the "Pinhead Quick Release Double Elite Straps" is probably 1 of the most innovative mods that has come from the PowerBocking community. This mod puts a twist on the traditional strap & wrapping method which is time consuming with a simple quick release method which means you feel more stable & secure & get in/out of your stilts within seconds. <br />
<br />

<h3>Quick Release Straps: (In Pinhead69's Own words!)</h3>

<strong>INSRUCTIONS FOR FITTING MY STRAPS.... (ELITES)</strong><br />
hello all you lucky strap owners...<br />
for those of you who have them, i dont need to explain what they<br />
do for you, secure wise or jumping wise...soooooooo<br />
<br />
<strong>FIRSTLY...</strong><br />
these straps are designed so the buckles are away from potential impacts...<br />
(clever huh) :-)<br />
(new versions are now all left and right sided)<br />
the quick release buckles when fitted...will go to the outer side of your legs and the adjuster buckles to the inside...remember this when attatching the centre strap.... should you have tape on your knee bar...it would be better to remove it<br />
where the strap sits...so the centre strap grips better....<br />
also...some brands of stilt have a really soft knee bar padding...it is best for it to be harder as when you pull the centre strap tight it doesnt squash it up to nothing.... mine are 7's so its quite tough....<br />
they are also best used wearing pads...as you should be anyhow...ok<br />
<br />
<strong>FITTING CENTRE STRAP</strong><br />
the centre strap has 2 buckles...one is stitched and one is moveable...<br />
the smaller moveable buckle should sit exactly on the top of the knee bar from looking above the stilt.... and the larger stitched buckle on the underside away from impact and contact from your legs..see the pics (new versions have a large floating underside buckle also) so it can be replaced should you break it).......<br />
when threading it through the buckles..do it the same way as i have sent them out to you...(tip) as this will go tight or should do if you have done it properly....<br />
for some people, it is better to thread it through all the buckles once while being slack..then pull it tight afterwards..then do it again... as threading it through the top buckle after pulling them tight will be awkward,otherwise, just pull tight and keep feeding through the buckles....it should wrap around twice for double protection of the centre strap..trim it off, an inch after you have passed through the buckles twice...... (mine do not move....so if yours do.....pull them tighter...although this doesnt really matter as once they are fitted and clipped to your legs, they cant go anywhere)....im just fussy :-) so do your best...<br />
the crossover point of the straps should sit perfectly central to your knee bar looking from straight inline with the bar....see pics...<br />
<strong><br />
ADJUSTMENT</strong><br />
firstly...get your pads on then put one stilt on including doing up your bindings.... take your time...as once they are fitted to your prefered tension and liking....you wont have to do it again...regarding you always wear your pads in exactly the same place...remember this...<br />
also..dont go extremely tight... go for tight but comfy.... this comes into effect when in the getting up position.... just a pointer....ok<br />
now sit down and fit them with a straightened out leg...<br />
when feeding the webbing through during adjustment...ALWAYS unclip the buckles...this gives less stress to the buckles and stitching and it is much quicker<br />
than tugging away at them... trust me....dont pull....thread them through a buckle at a time...<br />
if it helps.... remove the pads for now and replace them afterwards...leaving enough space to refit them...the buckles slide so this is easy done....<br />
it can be harder for first timers or non thinkers to fit them at first.... im quick but had lots of practice :-) so be patient... you will get it...and be pro in no time...<br />
once you have got them close....stand up...as your muscle mass changes, you<br />
may need to tweak them here or there... if so...unclip them..sit down with a straight leg..adjust slightly and then your done....<br />
as they are made to fit all sizes...you may have some overhang on the webbing...<br />
if so...trim them to about 3 inches of overhang...slightly melt the end to stop the fraying with a small flame like a lighter...then cap them off with the end caps i have provided with them <br />
use pliers to pinch them tight...neat and finished...</p>
