No, it's a 4 line but depowers like a 5th line... ie: it falls out of the sky like a bomb when you let go of the bar. For a kite with limited depower (old C kite) this was better than a suicide leash, but on a modern kite I'd rather it stay in the air for 5 seconds (depowered) until I can get to the bar than crash down into the middle of the riding area.

I guess you could put a suicide leash on it instead.....

I hope the kite is as good as the riders who are on it... if it is it's probably pretty good although that is the one of the ugliest biggest chicken loops I have ever seen.
