line advise

[matthew_birkett]

hello

so ive been flying for about 6 weeks now and always checked my lines, any ways over the last few weeks i have noticed that my top lines are about 3-4inch longer than my bottom set(i have a rev)

to even them out can i just swap the top for the bottoms and fly or adjustthem with nots?

many thanks matthew

3 inches / 7.5 cm that's a lot! What are these lines? New? Used?

I would definitely reknot the loops and adjust the length. @John Barresi has a video tutorial on this here: https://kitelife.com/video-tutorials/

Honestly, top / bottom differential isn't usually a concern as long as R/L match up, but 3" is quite a lot... Guessing they're fairly old and flown in (stretched out), or whoever made them didn't put a good pre-stretch on them.

Easy fix in any case, as @Bunduki Vlieger said:

If you ever need new lines, well-tied... 😇

@John Barresi do you ship to the uk?

there new lines from my rev id say 15-20 hours flight time and not so strong winds to be fair only once where it pulled me about 3 foot forward ha ha ha i wasnt expecting that

I do ship worldwide but shipping cost may be prohibitive for you. Otherwise, a popular EU source for LPG line sets is Vliegertak.
