Flexifoil bar - depower line

Postby Bill » Sat Aug 10, 2013 7:30 pm

I have trouble reaching the depower strap as its set too high. Presumably I could just reduce the length of the depower line to bring it nearer. I would lose a bit of depower, but that would be fine. To counter that I guess could shorten the steering lines (by moving them down the leader lines). Anyone see a problem with that pl?


Cheers

Yah that loop and release with all the extra webbing is challenging. I would suggest buying an ocean rodeo chicken loop and replacing the one you have. That would take almost 4" out and you would not lose any depower
