When you check the line length, do you want them equal with bar all the way in or all the way out? I have seen both explanations and it would make a big difference.

[@TheRiderExperience]

Hi Mike, when the bar is all the way in we want all the lines to be the same length. Also with the bar de-power adjuster fully powered up. I hope that helps, Brendan.

After you get a new bar (or new lines) how soon does this become an issue and need adjustment? Will they continue to stretch/shrink or just the first season or so?

[@TheRiderExperience]

Hi Joe, In our kite school we normally don't need too adjust new bars for the first year or two and these are used heavily.
It will depend a lot on the following and much more - How often your kiting! Riding style, rider weight, and also sand type on the beach.
