When you are moving, you can simply direct your timbal with your knees.2nd version - 2 attachment points:If you feel that your timbal is more comfortable or stable wearing it attached to two hooks instead of one and you prefer having more space around your chest area, simply attach the carabiners to 2 adjacent tension hooks.Note for special sizes:With 1 attachment point, the straps will run down over the chest. For ladies with a larger breast, we therefore recommend either to use 2 attachment points or to switch to the MaxGurt Standard harness instead.If you have a large belly, please note: The timbal should then hang higher so that you can play comfortably and the hip belt is long enough.All straps can be shortened continuously.
