Questions for SSC coaches on figure of 8 lifting straps.
Out of respect for the forum rules I have not posted an external link, but please find a picture below

These seem to wrap around the bar and are advertised as being easier to fasten etc than traditional ones.
Are there any concerns about these that the coaches have? ie Any reasons why they should not be recommended as alternatives to the usual ones
More a general question on figure of eight straps not these specifically. I realize that they need to be of good quality material etc
