Thanks ambler. Nice pic.
I am going to use it for a highline. Hopefully I won't fall on it. :)

In reply to: In reply to: 3 wraps. How many feet, well that depends on you. Well since he answered the number of wraps, I guess I'll take a crack at the length! Take your waist size multiply by three, convert to feet, and add four feet. That should get you close. Aside from just a tied swami belt you might try a full on hand tied harness, which will incorporate leg loops. There are a couple different ways to do it, some better than others. Pm me if you want me to talk you through it.
Although I'm nostalgic for those days, that's not how I tie in anymore. I did use a bowline on a coil a few years back, out of necessity when there was no harness or swami in sight. Sometimes ancient skills come in handy.
