Remember to pre-flight check these. Had mine partially release while setting up my lines - bar dragging in the sand a few feet did it and another time must of got jostled in my gear bag. The system works great but if the pin is released it may look like its together and then...
Surprise!

Gota check your safety before you load your weapon! Wink

Tx for the heads up G-man.

Another thing to add to the pre-flight checklist. ~D

Edited to add a post thought:
PS Also keep an eye on the top of the SS bar (where the center line exits the metal insert). My metal insert frayed and ate my chicken loop line. I’ve been flying that bar since January on my travels so it’s had a lot of use (50 plus sessions). SS is warranting the bar.

It is also good to check where your kiteleash attaches to you bar/lines. Make sure to check that you leash IS attached before launching as to prevent kites flying away when you pull the OS!!!
