attaching two sets of lines


I was just wondering, say if you have two sets of 25metre lines, and low wind, has anyone tried attaching two sets of lines?

so handles/bar - lines - lines - then the kite

save buying longer lines? haha :singing:

I have flown with 150 foot lines in the past. Performance was ok but I prefer about 90'-100'. Give it a try and see if you like it.

Its been done before using two sets of 150' line sets...

keep in mind the loooooonger the lines the longer the input reaction to the wing
