Haven't had the time. I plan on putting it on my Syn19 when I get a chance.

most people sold their Syns for Chargers

and the ones that still Syns are playing with their Chargers now.

I have yet to see one open still but I think we can mod yours.

I am possibly wrong here ( again )

It looks to me like the only thing different is an extra pulley in the bridle set up ? The 3rd point of attachment for the bridle looks to be in about the same spot along the spar? The rest can be made with amteel rope.

Or am I missing something ???????

There are 2 extra pullies at the trailing edge. But the forward pulley point does look similar. The trailing edge pigtail is not there in the usual way too. The pigtail is on the "2nd" pulley and the "chord" line runs through all 3 and terminates on the pigtail as well.

Perhaps taking this "chord" line length off the Charger with the closest spar length to the Synergy that you want to modify will get you close to the right line length.
