a personal vision of an efficient handle to block the bar on the depower line for some airstyle action.

Very interesting Stan! Thx for making this video.

Why does the plastic part you created lock ?

To me it looks like the depower just runs thru it?

And it does not slide up, no matter how much power you have in the kite? Since Flysurfer has lesbar forces I assume it does not work with kites with more bar forces right?

Hello Toby , i copied the same shape of the hole of the stopper ball inside my plastic part , only the outside shape is different. so it s like the original stopper ball with a different outline.the main hole in the middle of the plastic item is thiner in the center and blocks the bar like a stopper ball.on the video there is a good 18 20 knots with my sonic 15 and its working well. for sure all the power of the kite is on the front lines so maybe with a kite that has more bar force on the back line it may react different . in fact any kite who has a stopper ball that is working good can be replaced with my plastic part with an adapted hole size similar to the original stopper ball.
