Nanno,
I made as epic rookie move the otherday! I was hooking up Garbie to my pulk sled for our trip at the trail head, I was really exited about seeing it all in action. I was so exited that I totally forgot to put the shafts in the shaft loops. Luckily the trail was mostly up hill on the way in to camp, but anytime there was a little down hill the sled would sled to Garbies side and the shafts would go all over the place. I had know idea what was going on. I was so disapointed!!! So I am laying in my sleeping bag going over the goods and bads of the day. Then it hits me!! I did not put the shafts in the shaft loops. It was as if I did not build the thing. Anyway the next day when we packed out I used the shaft loops. Believe it or not the whole thing worked great and stayed in line going down hill just like it was designed to. Live and learn. I did have to mess with the trace length vs. the footmen loops position on the shafts. Again I got if figured out with a little trial and error. I attacked a picture of my no shaft loops train wreck.
