Kinoko's Hip Harness

In this class, Hajime Kinoko teaches his Hip Harness for suspension with his model Maya Homerton. Function meets form in this intermediate level harness. Kinoko’s hip harness is designed in such a way that it enables comfortable suspensions for every body types without demanding a high level of flexibility. It offers sturdy hip support and reduces waist load (as opposed to Gorgone’s hip-harness designed for models with more back flexibility and who enjoy waist load), making it ideal if you’re looking to take some pressure off the lower back in bridge positions. This versatile tie is ideal for inversions and bridges and is solid enough to sustain dynamic transitions and self-suspensions. Further information regarding the suspension line: Kinoko's suspension line method for this tie is very simplified to allow the rigger, show definition to attach it easily and quickly during transition work (e.g. while the model is in a face-down and needs support quickly) and prioritizes efficiency over symmetry and balance. If you prefer, you can also use a normal Epsilon instead of the anchoring demonstrated in this tutorial. *Captions available for this series: English
