I think it goes without saying ...and that it's somewhat safe to say that people are usually willing to help and they will do just that. Perhaps this thread is getting off-track...???
BL's account of what happened is noteworthy...and what to do if it happens to you, how to prevent it if possible (not always), are the real issues. Gear failures happen sometimes and they take us all by surprise...sometimes at the worst possible moment. I for one am curious to see photos the bar and understand why it broke, any comments from BEST... Bars break, lines break, bridles break, harnesses, spreader bars, footstraps...etc, etc...and sometimes quick thinking and a little luck is all we can rely on for those few scary moments before the kite stops.

Hey Bryan did the screw come out of the bar end? How in the world did it come apart?
I once tried to cut down a best bar and even with after removing the screw I couldn't get the bar ends off... even with a hammer. I should have a good look at my bar and make sure it's tight. |
