my english is not extraordinary but i'd like to try a bar which would allow to have a control whenever the kite is overpowered what about this idea?

Then there is only one loop which could be locked or unlocked. The security should be into the bar, but the problem is the setting of the power of the kite ...

i have the draw of the bar on my computer but i don't know how to put it on the internet to give you the link, can someone interested help me please ?
see the picture at http:/zone.h2o.free.fr

In my opinion it is absolutely forbidden to guide a safetyleash to any narrow 'passages'. If you just have a small knot in the Safetyleash etc. you'll get it dirty! In especial if it's lead together with the "depowerline" through the bar.

Next point is how does the kite behave if steering is done with front and backlines. I really don't know if works.

Greetzzzz,

Louis
