I know it’s not something the pump manufacturer wants to do, lol. 😄
They’d, obviously much rather sell another pump

what is the load rating for the bridle's and pulleys on a kite?

I know the kite lines are pretty strong, about 450kg for center lines, I was just thinking about the bridles , and pulleys on the kite.

I’ve seen instructors , and kiters with 15-20 yrs experience make mistakes.

Never take for granted that you’re coming back in one piece, IMHO.
