Depower System (or sheeting system)
System that allows you to depower your kite partially. Usually with 2 additionnal lines that go through the center of your bar. Those lines are hooked on your harness, you can then change the angle of your kite against the wind when you push or pull your bar. The depowering effect can be very different from one kite to the other.
