I just bought a steel Thai cup and I'm trying to figure out how to tie these goofy ropes it comes with. For starters, the ends were already unraveling when I got it, so I dipped the last 1/4" of each rope in liquid rubber, so that's no longer a problem.
Anyway. I'm trying to figure out how to tie this thing on in such a way that:
A. The straps don't come loose during training
B. I can untie it after training
I managed to tie it so that it's easy to get on and off, but the downside is that it comes loose while I train.
I managed to tie it so that it stayed solid during training, but then I almost ended up having to cut the ropes off!
I'm tempted to buy some velcro strips and stick them onto the straps, but I'm not sure the adhesive will be strong enough. What's the trick, people?
