I know a pansh rep in seattle that's giving killer deals, he brought in a few samples, the Blazes look wild.
with huge kites you gotta try these handles!!!
You'll get way more out of the big kites.

I have flown BigSiler's 12.5 Blaze on the KBSS pulley handles and on Ozone handles, the pulley ones make life much easer. It helps to move your hands
down towards the middle of the handles, trying to pull on the breaks form the top just kills your wrist.

If you use a long strop with the power handles, and harness it is a lot of fun. Not sure the Ace makes a good depower, but the Blaze does, I have done
a few with not much effort.
The kite can be a spanker if the wind gets gusty 
Appex buggy, Libre hardcore buggies.

Jellis is the only one I know who makes them . U2U him or try him through KBSS
Maybe he can just send you the rig to put on your own handles for shipping purposes?
Saw a set of Jon's handles get eaten by a snowmobile last outing. The fact they are PVC may have saved the guys machine ?
