I have few questions, I would be glad that someone from blade will answer.
The bar is going to be black or white as showed in the previous pictures?
At the picture i see that the suicide setup is similar to north' bar
In the slide show the the double ring has been removed.
How the suicide setup will work in this bar?

I'm surprised by Jinx's comment that the safety attaches to only one of the front lines (which I think it's the safest option)
How can it do this thro the swivel?
It looks to me like it goes to both front lines. Please can you confirm?
Thanks
So it will not have the same double suicide mode as current /last generation bar?yoav_at_blade wrote:faklord wrote:Hi

Hello.
Jinx's comment is correct. The safety attaches to only one of the center lines, going all the way through the swivel and to the bridle. The second center line attaches directly to the swivel. When depowering the kite, the safety line will have some slack extending from below the QR, but it's not an issue since it just becomes an extension of your leash. This method is convenient for the main reason of not having loose lines above the bar.
In terms of line strengths. Each of the center lines support 400 lbs. and each of the flying lines support 250 lbs.
