I keep my leash fastened where it started because moving the attachment point would involve unattaching your leash while your kite is in the air. While it isn't likely that you would need to throw your bar during that couple of seconds that you are making the transition, you never know when a gust will hit or something will go wrong with your gear. Plus, as you get more comfortable making that transition of leash attachment points, you would naturally become less cautious while doing it. Just my take on it, dont want to see any more 'runaway kites' than we have to, others may disagree with me though...
