2010 PL Stuff


to avoid more U2U and emails than i can handle at the moment. this would be easier to state all the information here.

The Divine Harness (SM, MED, LG) comes without a spreader bar, but you can include it as an option with one of the three new spreader bars available. Also the issues with straps near the family jewels is gone, since they have placed the leg straps lower on the thigh and doesnt clip back up to the sides of the harness. when you get pulled up its drawing the power to your waist and thighs. by far in my opinion as the most comfortable seat harness for driving a buggy with. the neoprene is less restricting when seating.


http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o7/ripsessionkites/PeterL...
The Base Harness (one size) comes with the basic spreader bar and its a lot like the old PL Seat harness but this ones more comfortable and less restricting.


http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o7/ripsessionkites/PeterL...
All-Star handles is like the better version of the PL Std Handles. They where designed to be more for the freestyle drivers. With a bit of neoprene tubing around the leaders for more comfort.


http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o7/ripsessionkites/PeterL...
Longhorn handles are for Racing with the main leaders further towards the top of the handle (harder to snag behind each other). Racers actually control the kite more near the center of the handle. This provides control over the brake line and you feel out the brake tension more, and helps in turning the kite faster.

Looks good, especially the spreaders- the older pulley spreader has like zero bend to it and kind of digs in. These look a bit more comfy.

It seemed like the protos had metal pulleys instead of the standard pulley. I could be wrong though.

I took some pics of the protos that didn't turn out well due to overexposure. A setting got changed while taking the camera out of the bag. The protos had a black plastic type roller. U2u and email sent to Rip to clarify:lol:

to answer your question about the base harness i would assume it fits wide bodies with the adjustable waist strap. it even will go over your skirt like it does for dino. i should have it here in say about 3 days, and will fit a large rider and take some pics for ya.

job position available : hot good looking girl willing to be semi naked in public next to flying kites and/or topless wearing kite harnesses siting in different buggy models.

i could write a story about the stuff coming out of PL Factory but i would be shot first. so you'll have to wait until i get the OK to post.

the SS Rollers are custom, the ones you saw at NABX on De Dutch drivers. the PL Production ones are heavy duty molded plastic. what you see in the picture is what you get. i can get SS rollers produced but youll have to wait until i bring them home from WC in September unless you like paying Shipping.

for all other questions please email : dino-i-cant-assemble-a-race-buggy@dumba$$.com

No worries, I'm pretty sure its not worth buying from you anyway as shipping would be insane :/ sorry. Do things normally come out in the US before the UK? talking about the spreader bars specifically

No things don't come out earlier in the US then in Europe, it all comes at the same time worldwide actually.
Distributors are key factor here, in the US we supply dealers directly so it seems they have gear sooner because in the UK all goes through our distributor.
