Just FYI so you don't have to go through the same exercise...

I've been calling shops all along the east coast looking for a replacement trim line, and the only one I've found that carries these in stock is:

Air Company
1313 Long Grove Drive ,
Mount Pleasant South Carolina 29464
United States
Telephone: 843 388-9300

You know you can make your own out of Amsteel. It takes all of 5 min and costs about $3

Yea, the only thing about the trim line for this bar is one end has to be looped and stitched in a certain way.

Theres this metal ring you hook your leash into. If thats not there then you can only ride suicide... which i guesse isn't the end of the world.

And if the stitching isn't done right then a couple of plastic pieces won't fit right. Just figured that buying it all setup would save a buncha time of trying to get it right.

You would know better...I just know that a friend who rides OR kites makes his own when the stock one breaks. Not sure if he rides suicide or found a way to make it work right without all the stitching.

Pretty easy to make your own

3/8" amsteel is cheap, very strong and the loops at the end are super easy to make yourself. You really can make it better than new yourself.
