Ive always dreaded the yearly ski install as it isn't to hard to get into trouble or strain some muscles when working alone.
Then a couple of years ago while trying to think of something better / easier / quicker to install the stiff endless loop bungees I discovered that I already owned one.
This is a 4 ft long Irwin bar clamp with the reversible end so that you can also push as well as compress. I figured what the heck, its worth a try.
I found that it is very light weight and fast but it does require a bit of a strong squeeze grip, especially out toward the end.
Using this is not without a few obvious risks... in that if you accidentally trip the release trigger you will quickly find your self with a 4 ft long projectile. So always think about the line of fire.
I was able to do the complete change over in less then an hour by myself using this.
I would like to see what others are using for cords as well as the springs as I am always looking for a "safer way" and still be somewhat easy to use.
Thanks
