@your_favorite_contractor: here's my first time using drywall stilts and I'll tell you they were very awkward. I almost felt and busted my butt and I'm not sure if I'll use them again haha #construction #contractor #HomeImprovement #tools #carpentrytips
I walk on stilts everyday. Buddy you need to keep your buckles on the metal knee strap or they will get loose like that. Also when you put them on sitting your calves are flexed so when you stand up there are loose to start.

You have to adjust them to your gait. Also you need to keep the top straps really tight. One last thing, don't fall!

There are lots of adjustments to them, think of an alignment on a car, also Durastilts are the best IMO. I've been using them for 25 years now...

Warning… If you’re working on those stilts and have tools in your hands and begin to fall. Drop your tools and hug your chest! Do not stick your hand or arm out to stop your fall! They will snap like twigs

The strap around your leg needs to be under your knee. It also looks like you needed to balance them a bit more with the spring screws.
