After a little familiarisation, the adjustment is lightning fast and the ropes can be continuously adjusted to the wind strength and course. Set short on the cross and with overpowered room wind foiling - perhaps already with the rear foot in front of the loop - the full 40 mm length then provides much more safety than 30 mm trapeze ropes. The rig can be steered more freely and the centre of gravity can be shifted forwards much better if the foil threatens to rise.
Even in the long setting, the ropes don't dangle excessively and the Velcro fastenings hold on bars from 30 millimetres (incl. coating). You have to slowly get used to such lengths and perhaps practise a slightly different riding position in some situations, but then it pays off with a more controlled riding experience.
