Lakeland Tiedown Test: What Worked?

摘要

Sun 'n Fun 2011 may very well go down as the year of The Claw, the ubiquitous yellow three-leg tiedown system that dominates the portable tiedown market. When an Fl tornado roared through the airport, The Claw got its supreme test. Did it pass? It generally appeared to perform well and the company wasted no time getting testimonials up on its Web site. But there were dramatic failures of all the tiedown systems, including The Claw. Although The Claw staff told us no portable tiedown system could hold in the kind of winds that struck Sun 'n Fun, we think there are methods to tiedown that will survive those kinds of winds.
