Duotone Trust Control Bar
IN A NUTSHELL...
The Duotone Trust Bar has been the go-to control system for riders who prefer the traditional depower rope and cleat system, but there is nothing traditional about the Duotone Trust Bar.

Instead, it’s packed with the latest technologies, including the new Iron Heart VI Click-In Safety System and FLITE99 lines. This is the only bar you will ever need, as the bar width and line lengths can easily be adjusted to suit your kite. The bar is adjustable between 42 and 49cm with 22m lines with 2m extensions.
The Trust Bar takes control to a new level with an improved depower system, a simple yet effective click-in chicken loop and a new leash design. The Iron Heart VI features a Click-In Safety System, allowing you to push the chicken loop into the Iron Heart VI for easy connection. Perfect for riders using a rope slider bar and very handy when you pop your chicken loop and need to reconnect, especially in the water. The leash has been redesigned from the ground up; it utilises a new construction with neoprene making it softer and more flexible but also improving the elongation when you crash.
In addition, there is an EVA design and the new Quick Link Mechanism, which allows you to clip the leash into the chicken loop with one hand, massively improving safety. The Vario Cleat is combined with an adjustment clip to store the depower line. This has been specially designed for Duotone, featuring a new Dyneema line that minimises wear and gives the best feeling for your fingers. The FLITE99 lines from Robline reduce the drag through the air and offer a more direct steering response. The new V Distributor III can be adjusted easily, allowing you to set the front-line split quickly. It can also be removed entirely, very easily, so you can have a very low V; this makes the Click Bar compatible with most kites on the market. The pigtails have reduced sleeving, only where needed; this reduces the weight and the drag through the air at a critical connection point to the kite. There is a Suicide Ring leash connection system; ride it in full safety mode or easily set up suicide for unhooked riding. There is also a new optional Low V Distributor, especially for schools which comes with 12m +12m lines. If you want one of the most polished and tuned bars on the market to control your kites, the Trust Bar will deliver!
