What they say

Hide

Kanipex sells this test bar that you can buy, but with the help of a little fix it and my trusty old dolly right here, we're going to go with the homemade test bar. First one we're going to go with is the Kanipex Cobra 6-inch little ones. And let's get this set up here. Go ahead and step on it. Okay, hold on, let me get this set up. Okay, now go ahead and stand up and then put your other foot up in the air. Remember like yesterday? Go ahead, look at that. Nope, get this one off, hold it up in the air, stand up, hold it up in the air. Yeah, that's a lot of pressure. Look at that. Okay, so that one holds. And so with that, then you can just, it's so easy to take off afterwards. You've seen how quick he was able to just remove that. Has that much grip that it's actually able to hold on there and hold his weight. But then if you want to release it, all you have to do is literally barely tap it. And it comes off.
