Default hooker Crotch Strap

Hi everybody,

I bought the standard 4 point seat belt that is in vans catalog, but now i see that is very unconfortable do not have the 5th point when inverted, So i decided to instal de crotch strap kit, but it comes without the harness.

My question is if the 5th point crotch strap that hooker sells is compatible with my actual 4point system, once i didn't found the crotch strap belt in vans catalog, or i need to change all the system.


thanks all in advance.

Default There's got to be a better name for that item

Dear Henrique,
I am sorry, I don't know the answer to your question, but you gotta change the title to your post. It sounds like an appliance you would find in a cat house.
Cheers

I thought it was like a "time out" in a brothel;

or maybe some type of new handicapping system to equalize earnings;

or not.

Default Hookers vs Vans Belts

If you are getting into acro seriously,I recommend you sell your Van's belts and install a full set of Hookers. You might add a second lap belt.

I've had too many Van's belts seem latched but pop open. I have little trust in them for anything but x-country flying.

I can't seem to find the crotch strap installation kit drawing. Does anyone have the bolt callout handy?

Smile Hooker Harness

I agree that selling the Vans and getting the full set of Hookers is the right approach. The Hookers saved my life last August. They are going right back into the rebuild.
