line lengths

Have been experimenting with with my lines lengths between front and rear (again) and seems like my kite just isnt pulling upwind or is as powered up. Any body got some ideas to save me more experiments on the water?

Lost Chicken loop bit

Any one find a chicken loop and pin assembly for a flexifoil bar? I forgot it in my haste last time up at nitinat. Should be around the area by the 1st big root where the kites get set up.


Thanks, will reward with beer!
