Anyone know where i can buy an accessory one in Perth that attaches to the chicken Loop - not spreader bar ????

Cheers

You might have to make that one STW, don't know of one that is sold by any brand as an accessory?
I guess you have seen the Ozone one?
Do you have a harness that is seems that it won't fit on?
I've had to mangle them on to a few brands, even my Pat Love Quest was hard but it did fit with a bit of persuasion.

What bar and what harness do you have?

I think he's after one for the chicken loop Steve, not the harness. Mate I've got a couple in my toolbox I don't use anymore to suit a Slingshot bar. Could be yours for a pint, if they fit.

Hey Save the Whales,

Drop in and we can have a look and fit something up for you. I'll be at the beach this afternoon and every windy day. We can be contacted every other day also, just give us a holler.

We have loads of spares and bits and pieces as well a new items so I'm sure we can do something for you.

Cheers and good winds,

Hey thanks guys

I actually have a naish smart loop & when fully tensioned, the chicken finger would slide back a bit - leaving barely a cm to lock.... to remedy this I used some " super glue " on the webing to stop it moving, the smiley frown turned upside down when i hooked in on the beach - the webbing went brittle & snapped off

I guess valuble lesson is ' dont use Super fix on any webbing'

Cheers & thanks again for your help

Yeah I remember those not so smart loops, poor design of that part, anyway the simplest solution is the Ozone chicken finger that goes on the spreader bar, works better than a c-loop mounted finger, imo. See Darren he has them in stock.
