The Boss Fighting Chair meets the I.G.F.A. rules below.  There is absolutely no resting or unfair advantage to the angler when using The Boss Fighting Chair.

I.G.F.A. Rules include:

1.  Fighting Chairs may not have any mechanically propelled devies that aid the angler in fighting a fish.

2.  Gimbals must be free swinging, which includes gimbals that swing in a vertical plane only.  Any gimbal that allows the angler to reduce strain or rest while fighting the fish is prohibited.

3.  A harness may be attached to the reel or rod, but not to the fighting chair.  The harness may be replaced or adjusted by a person other than the angler.

Next Generation Fighting Chairs

I.G.F.A. Rules

Rule 2:  Alternative Method -- The Rocking Chair non flip over gimbal is stationary for the angler to simply locate the butt.  No rubber bands or swinging gimbal to frustrate the angler.   The Rocking Chair gimbal "rocks" and does not allow the angler to reduce strain or rest when fighting fish.  Butt can be locked in gimbal for angler's safety, eliminating the possibility of being pulled from the chair.

Rule 3:  Alternative Method -- Rocking chair motion can be locked to a stationary mode therefore eliminating the rocking feature.  This allows you to fish using a bucket seat that attaches to the reel or rod but not to the chair.  This innovative fighting chair meets I.G.F.A. requirements of no resting while fighting fish. 

BOTTOM LINE: 
THE ANGLER MUST ABIDE BY THE RULES AND HONOR SYSTEM
