Front line leashes work fine. It does not matter how long your line are for the leash to work properly. What matters is the leash must be half the wingspan of your kite when laid out flat. That way when you let go of the bar by unshackling the the combined length of the front leader and the leash will equal a full wing span and the kite will lay flat in the water with no power. The s2 set-up comes with a fairly long leash/leaders (~5m i think) so it should be ok, but it is good to check especially if use a huge kite (over 15m2).
Also because you will have long leaders your 27m strings + ~5m leaders will give 32 from kite to bar..some like it shorter but that is personal preference.
