I come from a gymnastics background, and can appreciate the kiting style you exhibit...I bet your gymnastics coach is proud of you! He should be. "Point those toes, Toby!" It is a proud tradition.
Question: If "Strictly Hooked" is a kiter's style...why use a 'chicken loop'. If a kiter never unhooks, why not get rid of the chicken loop and just use a shackle, or snap the "mushroom" safey to a ring on the bar? Wouldn't you find a use for an extra 6 inches of bar "travel", that you would gain?
Getting rid of the spreader bar hook and chicken loop would get rid of one of the more likely tangling problems, that has been discussed in the past, on this forum...when things go wrong.

Also will you have Pal and NTSC available?
Thanks

I am sure we will offer both systems.
And for sure we will offer a download as well via itunes.
Yes, you could get rid of it all. But then you need to customize stuff etc. Great for some guys, a nightmare for others.
The way it is it works fine for me, no need to do anything.
And yes, trying to point my toes wherever I can! Only then it will be my style...you can spread your toes instead if you want it your style
