Reply to: Another newbie question - proper trap technique

[quote=smfinley]I have not used a windsurf harness before, but it is likely it will work. Most trap harnesses have the hook fairly low, about waist height. So that they are below your life jacket (PFD). Many people also use low profile PFD's to make sure it stays above the hook of the harness. All my PFD's are low profile but it is more important for shorter people so that the two do not overlap. I use a harness without shoulder straps mostly for convenience, but also do not spend really extended periods of time out on the wire. Probably just 10-20 minutes at a time or so. I would test your harness on shore and if the hook stays in then you are probably good to go. Also don't try it the first time while out by yourself on the lake incase you have problems. Also make sure your tiller is long enough, I had to get a longer tiller for mine, I guess the previous owner captain never trapped out since he did not have one long enough to work.[/quote]
