the helmet discussion got me thinking.
my right side net meets the rules but is not as tight as some i have seen. there are some that have a ratchet strap in front portion of it. mine does not.
when i crank mine down tight, it cannot be as tight as i think it should be or you cannot attach the quick release latch.
so do i use a harbor freight strap to pull it tight after it is clasped and then cinch the straps or do i just incorporate a HF strap or a turn-buckle to keep it tight?
since it appears to be acting mostly as a guide to prevent whiplash and does not have a significant load, just how stout does it need to be?
thanks,
tom
PS, i am not sure if the 1" HF straps meet SFI specs.....
