Righto brains trust, I need some help.
This Arvo I snapped one of my front lines. My own stupid fault as there was a knot just above the break that I had missed when setting up.
Just measured the other line ( the one not snapped) and it is 24.57m long, loop in one end and knot in the other.
The kite is a 12m Globerider Trix 2011 and I don't think they have a dealer in Australia. Have emailed Globe Kites direct but they are based in Mauritius and can't imagine fast response.
Need some lines ASAP and open to advice on what to do?

Hi ya Simon
Sorry to hear of your grief - theres a mob on ebay based out of Qld I think that can do any line length you need with whatever end you need - and at a reasonable price ( look at ebay kitesurfing and xshorekiteboarding) other than that Moti Levi in Tweed Heads ( simply awesome kite repairer) may be able to help out or direct you - and your local shop are always the go to place ! - best of luck in a quick replacement.

yeh mike from kitethrills ive his contact details, if you have it made by moti levy send your other middle line so you get an exact match in length, if i wer you id just replace the two so you dont have any different stretch rates with new and old, also youll need around 360 to 500 kg for your middle set unless you megaloop.
