Angry Seperation of brand new fly lines???

Gentelmen,
Can anyone share wth me an experience with fly line speration on a brand new set of lines. I put a brand new 2007 Cabrinha Switch Blade into the air today in about 15-20 knot winds. I am an experienced rider with several years experinece with Cabrina products. Just after getting airborn I had two lines seperate just above the pig tail on the back and front leader lines. Band new lines with no wear and tear. These lines where brand new, I have never herd of such a thing?

I am looking to put this info out for saftey. I had a looping kite going slightly inshore and activated the quick release with no icident. If this had happend later in the session who know what would have happened.

I am seekign help on getting th word out on this one. I am going direct to Cabrina and seeking repleacment of the lines.


r/W.
