How to move the bar closer when sheeted out?
Hi, I am using an Ozone bar with a few different kites. The line lengths have been checked and are equal when the bar is just next to the chicken loop and the trim set for maximum power.
Sometimes when I am going along I have the bar right out, sheeted out completely with more than enough power, and in order to hold on to it I am reaching as far as my arms will go. The trim is set for minimum power too and my arms aren't particularly short either.
How can I move the bar closer when its in this situation? I figure that adding pigtails to the steering lines would bring the bar closer, but is this going to cause me other problems? If I did this, would I do it to the lines, or to the kite?
I would assume that I am using too big a kite in too strong wind, but at these times I can vary between not enough power and too much, so I still want to make sure it has the range I need.
While I am asking these sort of questions, do any bar setups have better trim range than any others or are they all about the same?
Thanks.
