Topic: Thomas Duvernay Kaya videos? & bow stringing
I recall seeing some videos by Thomas Duvernay about how to string the KTB, but I can't find them. Would like to see them.
I'm trying to find a more optimal easy way to string the bow applying the same amount of force to both limbs AND with no chance of twisting the limbs or tips..
So far I know of this:

I find that the bow wants to twist, still, with Ronald's method. And even though it's supposedly a common misconception that it bends the limbs unevenly, it seems to do so for me. Maybe it's only good for some bows.

The sitting crosslegged method... I find it very difficult to put the limb flush against my leg, they're at different angles so it sort of wants to twist. I don't know if that's clear enough. First I put the handle sort of under my knee, one limb on the tibia leg and another on the femur leg, and pull. Then I try to put the knee of the other limb on my other leg, but I can't do that very nicely. Maybe I need to put the bow further from the knee, closer to the butt.

sort of like this

The easiest way for me is to have the bow perpendicular to my legs and step through, one leg on the knee and the other at the handle inner limb of the same limb. And just pull. But that bends the limb in contact with my legs more than the other. I think the best way I know of so far is to put a leg on the knee and the other on the handle or arrow pass area, and step through. But it feels more unstable... and Ronald warns against putting one leg in the handle, though he's stringing askew.
hope this helps understanding for someone somehow
