Folks, I've got a second hand Reach from a friend that came with this bar (2021). Last week I had to use it with a kite from a different brand and noticed the kite fying like crap and stalling too much. After some trim adjust it flown fine. The front line swivel was free enough and easily undoing after loops but my question regardaging the lines length came today after checking the bar (I should have done it before using the bar
)
it's normal lines shrink after some usage, as dirty get into line fibers, but I wouldn't expect the steering lines so short. They're already set to the "light power" knot within the floaters, thus, they're already in the longest configuration.
It's not a big issue and, of course, I can easily fix it using the trim but, anyway, I'll use some pigtails to make the lines equal again.
My concern in using the pigtails is not mess the Reach's bridle set up. Therefore, I wanna ask you:
are the lines on Navigator bar supposed to be equal (like all other bars on the market)?
Note the amount of trim I had to pull in order to make all lines equal length.
