SCARY thought, But defiantly a factor with Bridle/pulleys.
I was a "C" kite owner until this past year when I switched to SLE's . FANTASTIC kites IMO. But they do appear to require a bit more maintenance. I noticed bridle wear after 10 hours worth of use. This is something that had me concerned @ first. But I've recently purchased upgraded pulleys and EXTRA bridle line and will be watching closely for wear/deterioration.
Are there ANY other areas to pay attention to Rick? ( Bridle attachment points, Bridle knots.......) other then the obvious
