    I really do think you learn to fall by falling alot.. and certainly that builds fear. The harness is fine for saving falls, and sometimes getting people to feel what straight feels like. You really shouldn’t do the jumping for them. The problem I have with it is that it sometimes pulls them forward from the shoulders, (although some harness designs are better); and also the curve on the ice is so limited. It’s great for dbl flips, dbl toes. I’ve done the jump part of flying sits with it..
