Depower line length


What would be a good depower line length for an arc? Right now the it is 30cm long. The standard for PL bars is 37cm. I think I could add 15-25cm and still be able to reach the bar(I have really long arms). Is it possible to have to long of a depower throw?

BTW, I'm luvin' the arc. Especially the jumps. Just fly it across the window and pull in the bar and up you go.



Arcs - Charger I 8m, 10m, 12m, Venom I 13m - F-Arc 1200, 1600
Single Skin - Born-Kite LongStar2
Fixed Bridles - Pansh Legend 4.5m - Peter Lynn Voltage 3m

Since you have long arms, if you have a sliding stopper make it as long as you feel comfortable. Make sure your lines end up equal with the bar pulled all the way in and trim out. I fly my Venom with an Ocean Rodeo long throw bar with below the bar depower .

I've got really long arms, as well. Could I extend the dp-line of my access so that I can make use of my long arms? I could easily reach 20cm further:frog:
