DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Iron Heart IV Safety System
The core of the Trust Bar is the Iron Heart IV chicken loop. This system allows for instant release when needed: just pull, and the kite immediately depowers. Re-arming takes only a few seconds without tools, even with wet hands. It's a reassuring feature for beginners and experienced riders pushing their limits. The reliability of this mechanism has been proven over several generations.
FLITE99 Lines and Direct Transmission
The FLITE99 lines used on the Trust Bar have virtually no stretch. The result: every steering input is instantly transmitted to the kite. You gain responsiveness for tight turns, rotations, and jumps. The durability of these lines is also a key feature; they resist wear and repeated abrasion well. We still recommend regularly checking your lines before each session.
V-Distributor III and Flight Stability
The V-Distributor III improves tension distribution on the kite's front lines. In practice, you get a more stable kite even when the wind picks up or becomes gusty. The bar remains balanced in your hands, without sudden tugs. This technology particularly helps when you're jumping and want to maintain control of the kite during hang time. It's a subtle component that truly makes a difference.
Click-In Safety Leash
The Click-In system allows you to attach your safety leash with a single click, with no fuss. This saves valuable time during setup, especially when the wind is strong and you want to get on the water fast. Disconnecting is just as simple and reliable. This leash stays securely in place while riding, with no risk of accidental release.
Comfort and Ergonomics
The Trust Bar's grip was designed for long sessions. The texture and shape provide a natural grip, reducing forearm fatigue. The rear line length is easily adjustable right on the bar. The quality of the finish and materials is also excellent, guaranteeing durability over several seasons of heavy use.
Compatibility and Versatility
This bar is optimized for all Duotone 4-line kites: Neo, Rebel, Evo, Juice, Dice, etc. It also works with most 4-line kites on the market, though optimal performance is guaranteed with Duotone kites. The 22-24m version is recommended for all kite sizes. Longer lines offer more throw and are suitable for both small and large kites.
