No Snag Handles

Why such a ratio of length ??? I don't have the original kite revolution, just built on Fredom plans. And from my previous experience with quad kite lines, the shifters have the same length. But I'd like to know why the difference in length is so big. I would like an explanation.

Brakes. Letting the top lines out, squares the sail to the wind better. No more "surge".  More control. Like having a standard transmission, you have to "put it in gear" to go in either direction. Might make launch a bit harder, but so much more control in the air. And with the knot system, you can adjust to each days conditions.

PS: most of those patterns and ideas are years old. So much more new info out there as a result of quads being so popular.
