I will play with it a bit longer but will most probably ditch it for my fixed spreader bar. Just having your harness loose is better I think.



Put it in the garage with the ab cruncher, ab master and k-tel popcorn maker !

I got my Dynabar yesterday from kitepower and was blessed with 20 knots today. Not only do they produce good wind they are bloody good to kite in. They do everything their adds claim. I ride in a seat harness for comfort, i have made the choice to forgo riding toe side, but i don't have to comprimise anymore, toeside was very comfortable, the bar slides freely and locks in to a cental position when ridin conventional. I found no difference when boosting ... i am very happy with this improvement to my equipment.

Good to hear you are happy with it.

I haven't removed mine yet, but still need hours on it before making a call.......who knows, it could fall apart after 10 hours.....and it is so strange at first, you know the way it sort of hops over, but as you say, no problems otherwise.

To help kiters to understand how DYNABAR V3 works. The rider is wearing both seat and waist harness.

Ok, had 2 hrs. light wind stuff on 12m SB, I ride hooked in with both twinny and surf board.

For light conditions where you have to walk, and walk I did...it really is nice. Hooked in floaty tricks are no prob. and it is nice to slide to toe side on landings and transitions.

I also had it out in 25 knots on 9m Rev. on the first session using the Dynabear at Lano.; and then the thing scarred me........the way it jumps about just takes some getting used to I guess, the benefits are there though.

Still need many hours before I can comment on build quality.........I will break this thing sooner or later

And I just had a peak at that video about and it is awful..sorry fellas.

Im also restricted to seat harness and love Dynabar for waves and toeside, but doubt that it would be ideal for freestyle. As Gruezi says the hook changing position takes a bit of getting used to, but is well worthwhile and toeside puts almost no strain on your back.
