Are there any other devices like the ATN Tacker for flying a

called a Spinnaker Guy or something like that....?

Comments on using the chute in such a manner? I have a sweet drifter,
but I also just got a gorgeous chute to play with. Yes...I do have a
pole, but I was wondering about flying without one on occasion.

I made my tacker.
A short piece of towing strap and a couple of 2" D rings.
Took half an hour to sew up (my Brother couldn't do it, so
I did them by hand)

As for the Sym?
Use the pole.

Asymmetricals can fly without a pole, but I doubt that a sym type
would stay open all that well.
