¿HANDLES O CONTROL BAR?


hello
I'm new to the forum so any errors I apologize
My native language is Spanish so that there may be errors in grammar
I wonder if it is possible to pass a command and use kite with bar
thanks and congratulations for the forum

First of all, thank you for the help and second I tell you that some kites I fly, but not so large ( bigger 5m)
I have a old kite naish ar 15.5 (kite) which flew several times but not the same thing
The radsail is for sale but is whith handles and I want bar, my intention is landboarding crazy do you think?
In my country its dificult to buy a large foil you can buy some kite trainner
I friend of mine is travelling in november from New York thats another option, by the way I live in Uruguay South America

I mostly landboard w/ handles… I only use a bar w/ my depower kites..I honestly think you should get more comfortable w/ handles flying fixed bridle on a smaller kite (3/4m) it will make you a better pilot and you will have more control.. than if you own that monster ass Radsail take her out only in light winds on the handles…like 3-5mph winds at first..you shouldn’t be looking to change the manufactures set up before you buy the kite …again that is a big powerful kite think about your next move…if it’s a great buy nothing wrong w/ owning it and not using it till you know your ready…be safe be smart and kite as long as you can.....others may have a different opinion but they are wrong:D
