Good to see Andy back at it again! Although I must add that I'm pretty certain the PKRA in Perth unfortunately won't be happening this year :( .

Really? that's a bummer.. any idea why?
I did notice the location was Leighton however ![]()
I see Andy clips his leash onto the rope above the CL rather than the metal ring in the CL.. I guess this is to keep clip/leash out of the way when hooking back in?
I clip onto the metal ring and sometimes it gets a bit messy with leash and clip sitting on top of the CL once hooked back in.. so this position would eliminate that I spose..
^ I do the opposite
. I've never understood clipping it above the CL it is the most annoying thing for me ever... The bar catches on it weirdly and it's also in the way of your hand when you unhook. The metal ring on the under-side of the CL is a perfect place for the leash.
The PKRA isn't happening because they couldn't find enough sponsors. I'm not sure about the Nationals, hopefully someone puts it together... but if no-one puts their hand up it wont happen for sure.
The clip can be a bitch too though cause u have to pull ur CL off and rotate it to get the leash on the right side after every trick. its still better then clipping above cause like rowdy says it feels to weird and stuffs up the bar insert that's supposed to mate the top of the CL.
The bar insert is a piece of ****. It never lines up properly when you unhook. I clip above the cl and have no issues ( I split my fingers between the depower rope too).
Bummed about pkra perth![]()
I actually cut that bar insert piece off my CL, I don't like when it sits in the bar like that. I also don't really have a problem with the leash being on the wrong side, I just flick the leash over my head to which side I want and if it's a bit tangled around the CL as soon as I unhook it all comes good again.
