I'm new to the Kolb list and Kolb flying, too, but I've been flying hang
gliders since 1974 so I have a bit of history with safety pins. There are
two "fixes" for rotating pins that I have used. One is to change to a
circular style pin, like the ones used for key rings. Bend the starting end
out slightly so it is less of a PITA to get the clip started in the clevis
pin hole. The second is to wire or zip tie the safety pin to a nearby
structure and make the lead short enough that the pin can only go in and
remain with the clip end down.
