I guess you can blame the donkey dick for hooks being so stupidly long.

The dick needs at least a 90mm long gap so it doesn't bunch and maybe pop out of the hook.

If Cabrinha are really serious about converting lots of kiters to the Fireball concept, [thereby capturing a market],

the first thing they should do is sell off the required spreader bar really cheap, like nearly give it away.

I was told they cost $145 retail. That's a big hit.

I bought a spreader bar from a shop awhile ago for $20.

lol.

My apologies if it looks like I am attacking a bar or a brand, I like the idea of forums being able to talk about what might be an issue, how to make things better, and what works and does not for kiters :) So I will keep posts positive from now on.

There is a move to $1000 bars, ( fireball bar + harness is close to $1000 + other new bars coming out soon )

(Staying positive, must not attack or point out issues) There is nothing wrong with some people wanting a $1000 bar. If you'r after a prestige top of the line bar, it's a fair price considering development and markups and shops needing to pay staff and rent.

Below are some new bars from big name brands coming out soon.

(Staying positive, must not attack or point out issues = ) The below is a revolutionary new idea/design where you adjust the depower by grabbing, twisting, cranking or pulling the far end of your bar, while flying the kite, in strong winds.

These bars will be great for people who have issues with reaching de power straps as they adjust the side lines which have less load.
I prefer simplicity, what are your thoughts on this new design?

I see possible issues but won't say anything.

lol. ^^ ....prestige

It would have to come with pro-lines, surely ?

Um. you mean, Bar out kite goes fast, (kiteboarder goes slow). Bar in kite goes slow(er) (kiteboarder goes faster)

Could be wrong though

it will make you kite better! because of your increased time on the water staying away from the wife going on about how you spent 1K on a bar

The core sensor 2s pro has adjustable line lengths from 24m, 22m, 20m and 18m a really cool feature I like on the core bars is that the lines are split through the bar so when you pull down the bar after a kiteloop or rotational trick it automatically untwists the lines. The sensor 2s has polyether where it passes through the bar. Techno speak for a really durable, self-lubricating, no pinch, depower line. You can buy the bar with 4 lines or 5 lines and is a very light and simple bar! Just be aware that the safety is a twist release and not a push away like most bars but still woks perfectly fine.
