Hi Rein,
check the link from mgs, but know that lecca-lecca is already a professional builder, so even if his construction is good, but not on level of FS or Ozone, I fear it will be pretty hard to reach this level. 20 years ago it was easy to improve a kite as also the "professional" kite designers haven't invested much time or had significant experience, today it's all on another level.
I also thought bridle is important, when just trimming a dozen of kites and building own bridle 20 years ago, but its 95 % about the canopy with its profile and the tension in the straps ..., which is my todays impression.The bridle is just to release the canopies potential, but if the canopies shape is bad it will never be a nice kite not with the best bridle.
A good software is great, but you need the experience how the individual software translates to reality. ... If you just want bridle plans, those from FS are all public on their webside.
Maybe one way to start is, to get a plan from a designer you know, you may ask Stefano Moris, as I had a similar idea one year ago, to get the plan an build it myself but actually haven't the time.
@kiteexpert:
Maybe already asked that question: Are there any real world photos or videos of you riding your kites? Thanks
