ahhh but for what purpose, static flying, skudding, buggy, landboard, water, coyotes... ?John Holgate - 10-8-2011 at 03:34 AM
Bar for relaxed cruising on the beach. Either depower or turbo bar on my fixed bridles. I like to be able to fly one handed and film with the other
- I'm confident enough with a bar to do that. I tend to sit facing more forward with the bar - which I much prefer.Kamikuza - 10-8-2011 at 03:37 AM

I tend to agree with this statement.
However, I'll caveat that to say that I dont really care for flying fixed-bridle kites on a bar. It just doesn't feel right. However, my entire quiver
is depower now... It's only when I'm flying someone else's fb that I fly it on handles... awindofchange - 10-8-2011 at 11:13 AM
It really does depend on the kite and the application. For most of my flying I use handles, but for boarding I prefer the bar. For depower, the only
option is a bar so it really does depend on the kite.
