I have a 2009 Slingshot bar with 23m lines and I have a 2010 Slingshot bar with 20m lines.
I want to put the 23m lines on the 2010 bar. Does that fit?

Yes. Everything is the same except the release as you already know.

What I've seen done and I'm going to do is get some 3m line extension so I can use both line lenghts. As I prefer 2010 bar and 20m lines on 10m, when its on the limit with 23m lines.

Also having smaller bar lenght is nice for unhooked :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

btw, I swapped the lines myself and I also noticed that CSS bungee seems to be a little longer/shorter depending on the year. I can't remember which one was actually longer :( But also that could have been caused by different amount of use (stretching). Also depower rope is different.
The lines are the same though just as already said above.
