Hi guys,
1. Has anyone done this mod to stop the rear pulley from going back beyond halfway.http://xtremebigair.com/bigair/forums/webpage.cfm?&Site_ID=1&Thread_ID=7201&ThreadPage=1&Group_ID=2&webpage_ID=1
2. Did it achieve the desired effect???
3. Pros and Cons my learned friends.........
Thanks Bo
I have a 08 Waroo 9m and I was hoping the mod would make the 13m turn that little bit faster.......... I'll go ahead and modify it tonight.......
hopefully get some wind on the weekend to test it......fingers crossed
Cheers

if u make it too short it mkes the kite turn all pivoty n not make that much power.. i liked the reverse bridle mod more IMO
What is too short????
Is there a certain length you should not exceed or reduce to??
I was going to get it as close to the centre as possible.
This to me, makes the rear section slightly shorter because of the length of rope used in the knot.
Is this good or bad??
Or should I do the mod, fly it and then change the pulleys from back to front and see the difference( the other mod you can do )?
wen i did mine i just gestimated whith the bridle still on the kite.. i sugesst wen u pul it so that it sits centred go about halfway between the wing tip and pully.. maybe 2/3rds from the wing tip would work aswell.. i think i had mine a bit too close to the pully though..
i suggest you do both mods back 2 back n see what u like best.. the reverse bridle doesnt really make it faster though, it just makes the kite a bit more grunty and stops the back stall when u sheet in
I have 13m 07 Pro and removed the rear bridal front attachment and placed it with the rear attachment point , same as 08 fast setting and it gave the kite a more direct feel and faster turning speed , but it might affect the depower at the top end of the range, it felt good in the air though. And also with this setting I attached the rear line to the second knot.(the kite likes to fly off the front lines)
