I cut the ends off of some old ski poles, drilled holes through each end, and put a key ring through each hole. I used carabiners to attach an old backpack belt to the key rings on one end. At the other end, I inserted the poles into the sockets of the wheel brace. I then dropped the safety pin through the key ring.
It didn't work.
The trailer is heavily weighted towards the back. This causes it to tip backwards as soon as I hit any bump. Secondly, the key rings inside the sockets of the wheel brace absorbed all of the shock from each bump and quickly bent. I think that I can solve the balancing problem by attaching a strap to the front of the trailer and to the skis that will prevent a backwards tip. I don't know how to solve the other problem. How else could I attach the harness to the trailer, or what else could I use to attach it that won't bend or break?
Suggestions please.
