Best method to secure tackline to kite?
We have a tylaska J-Lock on our tack line that can grab other lines during a kite launch. https://www.defender.com/product.jsp?path=-1|2259973|2260013|2260025&id=4560577 Has anyone had better success with the standard tylaska shackles or soft shackle? https://www.defender.com/product.jsp?path=-1...
