yes, fully agree to have the same system on all bars. Besides few companies almost all have the push release.For the good of the sport, I would love to see the Kite companies collaborate on a developing a truly passive safety system.
Some others fixed problem #1 also. Both Flysurfer and Core (previous) use a stopper in front of the QR. The downside to the stopper is that it uses up 1" of bar throw.Kamikuza wrote:Good points Richard, I hadn't considered #1 but of course, now you mention it - it's obvious IIRC Slingshot has addressed this with a thicker section on the depower line ...?
Point 3 - the PL Zero7 bar was so loose (damned French silly standard) that knocking it with a board or clothing would cause it to pop off ... happened to me several times, very annoying when you're trying to wade out past the shore break
I dunno, would you need more dexterity to clamp and twist than you would to clamp and pull?
never got a trouble withthe PL zero 07 bar whereas in snowkite or kitesurfing. it might pop off if it s not fully closed thoKamikuza wrote:Good points Richard, I hadn't considered #1 but of course, now you mention it - it's obvious IIRC Slingshot has addressed this with a thicker section on the depower line ...?
