North Kiteleash Safety Problem Posted on: 2007-04-28 12:28:53 by Tilman The 2007 kiteleash by North is not safe. I want to prove this in this video. The leash releases the kite by itself if it gets in a specific angle. Filesize: 0 MB Filetype: WMV Views: 251 Downloads: 21 Rating: 2.84 Ratings: 4 Download

Comments: calljj at 2007-05-07 11:10:39 Now try doing it holding the leash where its attached to harness....chances of it happening are incredibly small, if not impossible to get the sudden angle change you are replicating. Agreee with above comment, put a locking one one if you're brave enough! Lost at 2007-04-29 05:20:05 actually you are right... i found out in another way...still have my 06 leash connected at my harness but i am using my 07 to walk my dog. Twice it got disconected and i thought that was my fault. Now i know what happend. I am still using my old leash. aahi at 2007-04-28 21:21:39 irrelevant, you can do that with other leash clips, as well as the carabiners that some companies use. most quick-clip attachements can open when pulled the wrong angle. if you want just substitute for a locking biner...
