I used an older model of one of these:

With my G2-22. Can't beat the price. I tried emailing them recently and never got a reply so I'm not sure they're still available.

I have one of those - works great - just ordered 2 more to keep the rigs assigned to kites. There are a few mods to do to them - I personally don't like the really long center line leaders (thin orange line) that come with them - from what I remember the bar leaders (grey cord) are like a couple of feet long - so I usually take the bar leaders and cut them in half and then replace the front line leaders (that attach right above the depower strap) with the other half. I then use the PL safety setup - http://www.youtube.com/user/waxphone#p/u/4/5KPES8pMZ1o

The chicken loop with the trigger release is one of the best releases I've used - easy to release and easy to reset.



we all believe is called the expansion

Does it matter if we use a different bar than the PL carbon one? or would any regular 4 line de-power bar be ok, as long as we attach the lines to the right specs...

Sure, I've used Airush, Caution and other bars with my PL's. Just make sure all 4 lines are even and you probably will want a fairly long center line to th chicken loop. Most kitebars can be adjusted to this.

Regarding the Airush bars, I just got an email from them and all they have left are 45 and 50 cm bars.

Just received the 2 bars that I ordered - were a bit long in arriving because they were initially out of stock but the guy was really professional about it and threw in two line sets for the delay. 2 bars + shipping = $142 Us dollars. Awesome deal alone but with the lines thrown in - Amazing.
