thats what I do
Posted by: rickEv on Nov-04-12 8:43 PM (EST)

I was also taught to grab around the hips and try to get a bit of a wrinkle in the fabric and work it until you can get underneath. I always try this with a new boat or skirt. If you can't get it off this way, it's dangerous and shouldn't be used. There are too many things that can go wrong with the grab loop to trust your life to it.
