Setting up bar lines for my son to get kite skills/body dragging.
Kite has usual 3 knot ajustments on kite pigtails leading and trailing edge.
Also has these knots on centre lines.
Keep them or get rig of them ? I think get rid of them ?

They are only there to allow for proper tuning of the bar, BUT there does not see to be a front line flagging system installed on that bar.
My advice your be to go to a shop or an experienced rider and aks them how to best rig up a front line, below the bar flagging system for that kite.
If you can't find anyone, take a pic of the complete bar as it is and send it to me and I'll advise you of the changes needed and if you want quote you on supply and fit of the appropriate bits.
I'd be very wary of putting my learning child on a kite that does not have a well proven easy to operate safety system.
What brand and model of kite is that?
