Is there a diagram or instructions somewhere for rigging your own crossover bar? Thanks, Wade

There used to be a lot of info on the racekites forum too but I don't know if its still there since they upgraded the site after a malware attack last year.

A couple of things I found that help this set-up are. The lightest pulleys you can find + the center pulley is better if it will swivel.

The smaller the kite I used the crossover on the more the back stall from the added weight showed up. This problem goes away once the wind picks up.
