2018 18 28 - Hampton swim

With my main bar looking like it is about to give way, I took out my old 7 bar and changed over the safety from the other harness.  A few too many variables which should have been a bad sign.  Got out on the water and as soon as I put some real power through the kite (a loop) the safety went bang.  Then, cause I hadn't put the safety on the harness correctly it also popped.  Leaving me with a long swim in, and James to grab my kite which drifted in by itself, luckily the bar didn't grab on a rock groyne or something which would have been a disaster.
Enough impetus to go and get a new bar and kite - so yay !
