International LeatherSIR 2010 Hugh is performing a whip demonstration at the local leather bar,
The Cuff for
gear night on Saturday March 19, 2011. He asked me to
partially suspend his boy for the event.
This presented problems. The normal
harnesses are too low or cross the target area of the back. But the wrists are valid lift points. Pulling the arms in front of the body spreads the back open.
I experimented on
soundsFun. It worked out well.
For the actual event I will probably have the boy standing. I will probably add a hip harness for safety. The angle of the lines will probably require using a spreader bar to keep from crowding the head. But those are details I can deal with in a couple days.
But for proof-of-concept work I was proud.
