Design details
SIZE: 42-35cm
- Adjustable bar length
- One line flag out system
- Manual swivel to untwist your front lines
- Kite steering more precise and more durability thanks to the lines
- 140 cm medium leash included
Through the years, F-one have improved it and added some great features to create the best connection to your kite. The lines are not too elastic, which makes kite steering more precise. Moreover, elongation through time is reduced which allows to ride with a kite always perfectly tuned. In addition, as the lines are stiffer it makes them easier to untangle whilst setting up the kite.
The Hub is made of aluminium and the F-ONE cleat is hollowed, which allows to have lighter parts for an even more performing bar. The 2021 Linx Bar features a new design with new colors harmonized with the rest of the range (boards and kites).
QUICK-RELEASE
SAFETY SYSTEM
Designed to work efficiently even in the most critical situations, it can be triggered under load but also when the lines are slack. A stopper at the top holds the kitebar to make sure the system works even when the bar is pushed towards the rider and blocked in the lowest position. The push-away system enables to trigger the release with minimal force even under the highest loads (tested up to 400 kg). Since 2016, the quick-release is provided with more rigid elastics.
"SUICIDE LEASH" MODE
With its larger Life Line ring, the F-ONE push-away system offers a leash set-up enabling to release at any moment, including in “Suicide Leash” mode.
MANUAL SWIVEL
The quick release features a swivel which enables the user to un-twist the front lines while riding. This is done by simply rotating by hand the top part of the quick release. This rotating part is mounted on a ball bearings mechanism making the operation effortless, even if the kite is pulling.
LIFE LINE SWIVEL
It makes sure neither the lifeline nor the safety leash gets twisted. This 2nd swivel operates automatically and does not require any action from the user.
WIDE CHICKEN LOOP
The Freestyle push-away quick-release comes with a wide chicken loop to make hooking in and out easy.
