How Do I Adjust My Ropes?

Flexia's design uses a climbers knot, called a Prusik knot to adjust your ropes.

 

Instructions For Adjusting the Ropes

To shorten the rope:

• Take your long loop and put it over the shoulder rest.
• Reach down and find the knot. Take one hand hold on to the knot, and your other hand will grab the rope.
• Pull the rope and slide the knot. (Look for an even drape between the ropes).

To lengthen the rope:

• Hold the knot and pull the other side of the rope.

Make sure that both of the loops are even and the ropes are the same length.  Pick up the loops and pull them to the middle and just take a quick peek. Do they look the same length? If they don't, then you can readjust your knots.
