I recently bought a waist harness. I already got a seat one.
Because i'am doing buggy... no small leach(handle pass) between the two "D" shape ring. I hook the safety leach between kite and harness by the right "D" shape ring.

Those who ride depower kite... are you using the small leach(handle pass) on back harness to hang the long safety leach between kite and harness? Or just using one of the "D" shape ring to put the long leach?

Because i'll don't made twisting jump, the small "D" shape ring are more usefull than the small leach(handle pass) between "D" ring... but for safety reason example: if i attach the long safety leach on right and safety release on the left side i'll be forced to made a 180°. Instead if i use the small leach(handle pass) i'll be forced to do only 45° because the long leach hook will slide against the short leach?

If i wanna be "by the book" should i use one of the "D" ring or short leach(handle pass) between those rings?

Ocean Rodeo's solution to this is they provide you withe a webbing loop with a D-Ring sewed to it. You larkshead the webbing to the spreader bar. The webbing is then passed through the spreader bar cover.



You could do the same using a dyneema micro loop and a stainless steel ring or D-Ring.

Loops should be available through an arborist or marine supplies store.

thanks Indigo_Wolf,
a friend of mine suggest me to get a big ring from climbing gear 1½" aluminium ring and put this ring on one of the strap for spreader bar.
Yesterday i went to local bike shop and found a kryptoflex string/sling but it's too long.

For the price/weight differece, I would probably stick with the stainless Ring/D-Ring. My aversion to aluminum is that if it gets ding, it can develop a burr which isn't kind to ropes, webbing etc.

Putting the loop of one of the spreader bar straps may cause abrasion and replacing straps involves stitching. When you larkshead a loop to the spreader bar, the sacrificial piece is the loop which is easier to replace.

Apparently, Dakine sells what I was talking about as a separte accessory.
