Mystic Warrior 2013 safety upgrade

I´m a big fan of Mystic harnesses, during all these years kiting I´ve only owned warriors.

This summer I´ve purchased the lastest model, as the current was a bit wasted and it was paintful to ride without wetsuit.

Overall happy with the purchase, but I saw that the latest model lacked a feature that the old one had. 

I'm talking about the back rope release. In the older version you have a front handle to release your leash in case its releasing system failed (which can happen) and the good thing is that this handle is always in the same place (left side almost in front of you). So i'd decided to switch the rope using the one from my old harness.

In this picture it can be seen that the attachment to the right ring is the same as the newer version (its fixed).

While in the left ring instead of being fixed, the rope goes throughout the ring.

And goes attached to another rope that its fixed to the hook. The releasing system is that red handle.

If you pull the red handle, the velcro will open releasing the back rope.

The pull of the leash will make the rope go throughout the left ring releasing the leash, bar and kite.

I know it sucks to loose your kite, but its worst to have a terrible accident cause you could not release yourself in a complicated situation.

I dont understand why Mystic has removed this system as i see it more safe as you will always know where the handle is (it doesnt happen with the leash release as it can be tricky to find in a difficult situation).
