What do you think about short lines?

Because i personally like using them especially when i kite in dangerous winds. First, they're fun. Second, they're cheap. :D And you can ride on them really fast whenever you want to try new tricks! You'll even be surprised with their performance!

Just the same.I like short lines. It feels comfortable using them because you'll feel like it's so powerful & that you cna go as fast as you'd like. Much better if you use them in very high winds..

In general, shorter lines allow kites to steer faster by making them more responsive. and it is also much safer for learning since they are much easier to untangle that's why a rider won't need that much room to maneuver. However, i still use longer lines. Even though they make my kite a lot slower that short lines do, at least they can give my ride more power & control.
