JonM 0 #44 October 15, 2010 You don't need to tether the balloon, you just need a pump and a tank. Fill the balloon, ride up, hop off, the pump kicks in and empties the balloon into the tank, it drops back to the ground under its own chute. Lather, rinse, repeat. -Jon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
