| RRD Global Bar V3 from GearFreak.nl on Vimeo. The 2011 RRD Global Bar v3 is the bar that we have all been waiting for, plus more. Every single detail has been addressed and brought into the Global bar v3. New safety system, new chicken loop, new flying lines, new bar endings, overall a brand new bar, that is compatible with any 4-line kite, and ideal for anyone who is looking for the top of the line kitesurfing control bar in 2011. The new Global Bar is composed of 5 pieces: - 2 x New side dual density endcaps with soft ends, for easy line rolling and a new quick trim to adjust the bar length
- 2 x narrower diameter carbon bar tubes to improve grop potential and reduce hand fatigue
- 1 x middle aluminum cast and polished integrated piece for de[power rope movement.
INCORPORATED SAFETY LINE
A great innovation in terms of safety by keeping the de-power rope clean and protected. Both the de-power rope and the safety line are running inside a dual chamber tube that hides these two basic lines. No more tangling around, it's all clean and safe!
DE-POWER ELASTIC TRIM
In order to avoid the problem of having the excess of the de-power trim rope hang- ing around, and possibly going to distrub you while kiting, we have added an elastic bungee inside the spectra rope that allows you to reduce the excess rope and shorten it until 50% of the stretched lentgh. Same functionality, no rope on yoru way!
QUICK RELEASE INTEGRATED CHICKEN LOOP A completely new design for this moulded chicken loop part. Ergonomically conceived, it is compact and complete of all features, clean and precise. Very easy to be released and remounted with one hand.
RRD RIGID THREAD FLYING LINES An exclusive product developed and manufactured in Italy exclusively for RRD. This new revolutionary lines are made with: an inner uninterrupted unidirectional pure dyneema fibers, covered by a pure dyneema 30° woven fabrics. The combination of these two styles of weaving the fabrics allow to obtain an unmatched low stretch factor of the lines reduced by 85% compared to the classic flying lines. The Rigid Thread lines allow the kite to be faster in the turns, to quicker transfer the power of the kite to the board resulting in more response and better handling of the kite in any conditions. The reduced stretching factor of these lines will allow a perfect trim of your kite in the time without the need to re-adjust your front lines! No stretch, better kiteboarding!
