My dear alexeyga as we all know you have some real big issues the way you behave towards me and my brand on every EPIC topics. I wish I could say something but again, I have to be very polite and professional. You have to understand I deal with tons of people world wide, but you my friend I must admit you are something else. Where you born like that or it just happened over the years of watching people kiting!!!!
The Depower/Power strap is fine the way it is. Some people like it some people don't. It is hard to please everybody. You are one of these guys that seats behind a computer and things he knows everything. And the reason I know about you is because I've heard it from some very close friends of yours. So again, your post doesn't make sense. It is just you trying to stir things up against me and EpicKites like you always do. Don't you ever get tired of this? If you can't reach the strap then do what my 11 year old son does, and if you can't do that simple thing, then spend some money and buy the extension straps that we have. But we all know this will never happen since you are so cheap, especially after trying to get a warranty LE bladder from EPIC KITES after a year of usage. Which we decide to offer you at our cost, and you refused. So please stop waisting our time with these ridiculous posts of yours.
Once again their is no problem with the Depower/Power straps. For (2010/2011/3G) some kiters were complaining that the throw was too short and it was right in their faces. So for the (4G) bar I decided to give more throw on the bar with the option of buying some extension straps in case the riders had some difficulties reaching the Depower/Power straps.
Personally I have not problem reaching the straps and I am only 5'10" with short arms. But again some people might and some might not. You also have so much throw on the bar that you don't even need to pull the strap. But every body is different and that is why it is so hard to please every body at the same time.
Also the reason we are doing so good with our product is because we listen to our customers. I don't see any other kite companies using this type of media such as the Kiteforums, FaceBook, Youtube, Twitter and so on... in order to involve the kiters with the product.
Again I wish I could make every body happy especially you, but we all know it is impossible. So why don't you make us all a favor and do something important this year. Go and buy something Epic for your wife or boy friend since Valentine is coming soon. And please stop riding EPIC kites.
P.S. I hope I was not to hard on you. Any way, if you have difficulties reaching it, get in touch with me so I can help you in getting an extension.
