Hey im new to this addiction and i have seen the interest in the V3 dynabar, it made me wonder why there is not a spreader bar that can rotate around your whole torso?
This could possibly make handle passing a thing of the past (if your locked in) and give your hands more time to grab the board etc.
Now i haven't even been on a board yet, kinda got into this at the wrong end of the season, so please explain why if this seems to be a silly idea.

thanks mate, i thought it must have already been done, i tried to search using the search terms "spreader bar 360 harness" but couldnt seem to find much. Any suggestions on what to use when searching, was it a particular brand?

thanks for the link there, i skimmed through it and it just seemed like they were talking about a similar thing to dynabar, what i have in mind is a 360 degree rotational hook, so you could have the kite completely on your back and really lean into a toeside turn. The hook would be able to go around your torso freely, no unwinding either. Maybe it hasn't been done?

Any manufacturers here keen for an idea, PM me

There was a 360 spreadbar.

Worst sound track I've ever heard in my life.

Yes

But good idea, why do you say '"was" a 360 spreader bar' though
wonder why no one is trying to sell this, is it coz it looks gay?

I mean someone already did it

oh my god that is rather hideous, looks like a hoola hoop or something, im guessing that it would not be able to go completely around either. Im thinking about a different style which would allow continual rotation around the torso.
Any manufacturers here?

There was another neater one that allowed multiple rotations, I just couldn't find it. I can understand the idea, but I wouldn't buy one.

has mutliple rotations
