20m line length as standard   Message List

20m line length should be the standard in the future

Flat LEI allows us to fully depower such that we can use slightly larger
kite

We can drastically change the lift during jump that we don't need longer
line length anymore.

Shorter line gives us more safety than longer line (no unpredictable nor
undesirable power peak due to uncontrollable situations)

These two combinations are perfect for shorten the line length to make
kiting less dangerous

We used to use 30m line length in the early days, 25m line length with 4
line kites. With SLE, the standard line length should be 20m

In the future, I would like to see new features that allow us to use 15m
line (maybe the physical minimum for kiting).
