Fixed bridle bar and lines

flyboy15 - 22-1-2010 at 04:22 PM

Hey guys and girls,

Our club just picked up another trainer and we need a bar and lines for it. Its 4 or 5m in size, and has front and rear bridles (I would like to attach a safety line to the rear bridles). It doesnt have to be major long lines, but I would prefer something that will definitely hold the strength of the 5m even in high winds

Anything you have would be awesome let me know

we have spools of line and can make just about anything for you, just let me know what you want.

Sweet thanks power, I was thinking standard length, 3 lines, sleeved loops on the ends? Let me know what you think and price

what length is "standard" according to you... please be specific.

trying to decide whether 200lb line is enough for a rear safety...... otherwise there is 300, 400, and 500 lb which will get progressively more expensive of course.

20m or 70 feet would be about right for a 5 I think. And 200 lb for the back is no problem I think it will do just fine. Let me know if you have a price quote and I'll discuss the option with the officers

And here are the handles:

The killers come with the handles as well.
No they're not new but they're in great condition. Not totally sure if I want to part with them as I might want them someday if I decide to pick up another FB KO. U2U me how much you're willing to pay for them, I'll see if its worth it to part with them.

I think the kite is more like a 3 point something m ? I know it looked big laying there all neon and all but when I flew it , it pulled like a non lifty 3m ?
