Wow,
Circa 2010 junk ideas being recycled????
I can remember 3 of these chicken loops being lost in lakes, one out in the ocean.
Yup, then when your leash or clip/carabiner breaks, you still wait a week to get your replacement and a back up chicken loop.
Ummmm??????? So 3 should last you a season? What about next season? Diapers, tampons, 2010 Liquid Force CPR chicken loops, and 2022 Naish chicken loops "beautifying" our oceans.... nice.tautologies wrote: ↑Mon Jul 05, 2021 9:22 am
Funny how people who have no idea give advice on this. Thanks for shutting that down.
How many times a year do you release your kite? Even if you do release your kite the CL stays on in 99.99% of the cases, because of the chickendick. Even if you do not use the CD it will in by far most cases stay on. At this point, I am wondering if you find it remotely strange to give advice on shit you have not even seen?Matteo V wrote: ↑Mon Jul 05, 2021 3:06 pm

This is a simple reuse of a design which the entirety of the kiteboarding community realized was an extremely dumb idea more than a decade ago.
In my "Museum of Solutions to things that were never a problem in the first place", it looks like I need a special section. It will be called "failed solutions to things that were never a problem in the first place, but were tried again just to sell more gear". This will be playing in endless loop on the monitors -
I was there in 2010 when this "s--t" as you correctly call it, was new. I helped to look for 2 different detachable CL's. Didn't find either. One was before the notice came out to put your leash through the detachable CL. The other was after. It cost both of those guys a week+ of kite time. The other guys I saw lose the detachable CL I didn't know well enough to get the whole story. But one of them, I saw a month later with a different bar.tautologies wrote: ↑Mon Jul 05, 2021 5:40 pmHow many times a year do you release your kite?
