specification sheet Spleene developed their “IQ“-Barsystem as a 4-Line Setup and managed to combine the many functions of modern bar systems without inheriting any of their known drawbacks. The bar allows many rotations without twisting up the depowerropes and flying-lines. Compared to other anti-twist bar-systems the “IQ” bars two depowerropes run behind eachother rather than next to eachother. This unique way of separating the two depowerropes provides a comfortable grip in the centre of the bar for one handed, toeside riding or one handed unhooked tricks. Thanks to the “Integrated Leash System”, the “IQ“-Barsystem doesn’t need a separate external safety leash, which makes the system the perfect set-up for “hooked-in” riders. By using the supplied safety leash connector (designed to stop the leash carabiner getting caught in the chickenloop) and an external safety leash (HP-Leash), unhooked riding is also no problem. In dangerous situations or when loosing control, the kite is safely brought to the ground via activating the intuitively positioned Quickrelease. An instantaneous, total release of the whole system in order to completely separate the rider from the kite is also possible with the “IQ” Bar. This is important if for example the kite gets tangled in another kite or fast moving object. Furthermore the “IQ“-Barsystem creates very little friction around the depowerrope, thus maintaining smooth depower action even when the bar is fully lock during extreme steering manoeuvres. The bar-ends are equipped with width adjustable Multiwinders so that one bar is suitable for all Kite sizes. The depowerropes are easily changed without the need of any tools. Each kiteboarder loves his own bar settings for sure. We recommend to use the inner attachment points at the winders for 5m and 7m Q-Kites. All other sizes are working perfectly with the outside position. |
