Does anyone know how to set up the a-frame carry so the brakes don't dig into your back? I've only used diagonal carry packs so i'm not sure what to do. I have a pair of volkl gotamas that i'm carrying, 105 mm underfoot. If any could have a suggestion, that would be great thanks!

The brakes should go against the pack, and a Voile strap at the tips to keep them together. See this Arc' image: http://images.arcteryx.com/details/1000/Arrakis-50-With-A-Frame-Skis.jpg
