sure can.......checkout the link for tolerances/safety points/releases...............I fly a 13m Venom on a 55cm modified best bar. Line lengths should be 27m minimum.............. Im using 28m Q powerlines

any foruline depower bar with a good amount of throw in the bar. 18''-22" at least and a safety line slide ring, i like the main line but with loops it is annoying if i forget to go back ,,

equal line finish, trim all the way out; bar all the way in ...and you are set

So equal line lengths with the bar all the way in is proper tuning? I am probably going to use my Gaastra spinning bar...with the release hooked into the chicken loop..love that old bar

does the venom2 prefer to fly with a little slack in the back lines or none at all...just want to fine tune it..thanks

the kite will fly front lines ,

yes slack should be present for full range of depower

and the trim all the way out , it is the safest way to set up the bar (not launch)

trim all the way in for unhooked ...if the stall remains then a shorter main may be needed
