looking for advice on replacement lines.

Post by matcr »

I have an older "c" style kite with roughly 3 meter lines leading from an airrush bar attached to 15 meter fly lines. One of the 15 meter fly lines was damaged and now i need to replace the set of 4. I'm looking for any advice as far as length or brand and just a local victoria spot in which to buy a set. thanks for anyones help. the kite is an airrush trio 12 m.

Re: length, I think most people have between 20-27m flying lines.

Longer lines = more power, slower turning
Shorter lines = less power, faster turning
