Here are a couple. See:

For one homemade rig.

Also see:

For a kit version of the Nick Schade foot braces mentioned previously in this thread.

I built one of the above for my Pygmy Osprey HP project, only I used a simple rope and jam cleat for the adjustment mechanism; much simpler than the scheme Nick and Eric Schade used. See link below for my version.
