I just went up on the roof and jumped. No creaks. Another advantage to no using the stabilizing jacks is that the rig gives with bouncing. It's not locked in place. And I could put additional springs at the hooks near the ceiling for added cushioning.
Using springs will increase momental force, it does not make things better.
I'm thinking in terms of *give*. It's a more flexible connection and that eliminates the more jarring movements.
Which is harder on your body...being connected to someone else with a steel tube? Or with a bungie cord?
