7m Depower to Fixed Bridle Side Project


I have an old 7m flysurfer extacy with a busted bridle gathering dust. I'm contemplating converting it to fixed bridle to have something a little bigger then my Tensor 4.2 to mess around on for atb/jumping. What's the verdict, a huge exercise in futility or worth the effort?

Welcome to the forum, supernova! :D

If I were you I'd sell it and buy a nice FB. Might be fun though ! Let us know what you decide.

Might want to contact John at www.powerzonekitesports.com to find out how much either option is likely to set you back.

That's what I was thinking. Should be a lot easier to fix it to new than to change it to FB ? If you want to fly it like a FB fly it unhooked ?
