The present disclosure provides a method and system for altering the drag force on a wind capturing structure. First, the present disclosure implements a new bridle system. Mainline 70 attaches to the bridle of kite 72, which consists of two bridle lines 74 and 76 joined at single point 78 at the top of the kite, and two separate points 80 and 82 at either side of the bottom of the kite. Mainline 70 wraps around the two bridle lines with sliding mechanism 84; sliding mechanism 84 may be able to slide up and down the bridle lines 74 and 76 like a bolo. The present disclosure also presents unpowered, automatic, and powered sliding mechanisms which may alter the lift and drag forces on the wind capturing structure.
