Slider question.
When Jumping slider down I have heard people say to tie it down because it can move up. What is the best way to tie it down. If anyone has any pics it would be appricated.

Pull the front bumpers up (off the links).

Slide the (front only) slider grommets down past the link.

Push the bumpers back onto the links.

Your slider is now trapped below the links (and held their by the bumpers).

What if i'm using slinks?

Re: [freeflychris] Slider question.
Just take it off? Slinks are pretty easy to open and close.

If you want to, you can use a pull up cord through the riser itself to tie the slider grommet down. Alternately, buy risers from Morpheus, which come with a built in snap/tie to hold the slider down.

 Well then you're obviously fucked.

Maybe you can super glue some slider bumpers to your risers?

Glad to help.Unimpressed

I would think, considering that the guy you've been jumping with has been around since Vegas was all single story casinos, he could answer most of your basic questions.
