Definitely a nice bar, but as someone who does not need an auto-unwind bar (yet), the best thing about the Navigator pro and all the modern bars is that shops are selling the old (but still excellent) models at much discounted prices :)

I use Duotone click, and I can’t imagine using a bar without auto unspin ever again so I will definitely go for navigator pro

I tried Click bar, Navigator and COS bar from Cabrinha. IMO the best one is the COS, follow by the Click. While riding with the Navigator I tried to release the security more then one time and it didn’t open. Did some online search and looks like the Navigator as some defect on the security… you have to be lucky but better don’t joke with security

I wouldn't add knots into lines because it can decrease the strength of the dyneema by up to 80%.. the steering lines probably won't break but it's best to find a different solution :)
@kitesurfexperiencebypetar
4 ай бұрын
Exactly, definitely we don't want to add knots on the lines of the bar. On the lines of the kite is definitely safer as the line is very thick so there is very small chance of the line getting damaged.
@jackvanuatu

Adding knots on the 3mm steering leader lines are absolutely no issue. 3mm dyneema is way over spec in terms of breaking strength. In fact, bars from many different manufacturers have multiple knots on the steering leader lines so you can untie or tie knots to adjust leader line length.

ok, I`ve been using the Navigator Pro Bar for 2 weeks: the front lines became a bit longer like yours. You told the bar worked perfectly for you. I thought all 4 lines must be equal sizes.. do I need to switch the knots on the back lines to make them equal with the front lines?
@kitesurfexperiencebypetar

Yes theoretically all 4 lines have to be equal length. Now when you ride with the Pro bar and you pull the bar completely, does your kite back stall?

@@kitesurfexperiencebypetar No, it doesn't. I released 1 knot on back lines (standard) to make them a bit longer, so now I have similar settings, shown in your video at 2' 32'' By the way: did you remove the additional knots you had made on the back lines after 1 week?

I didn't get the bar width settings: when I flip the toggles from + to - the bar, visually, remained with the same length. Could you clarify, please?
@kitesurfexperiencebypetar
3 ай бұрын
Yes visually is the same, but you shorten the bar for 2.5cm on each side, together 5cm smaller the bar is. You will feel that the kite reaction is slightly bit slower than when you have it on + setting.

@kitesurfexperiencebypetar

By experience I find that two fingers between the chicken loop and the bar is the best line length for the kite to work properly. if there are three fingers or more the kite might back stall, if the bar is completely on the chicken loop there might be missing a bit of tension on the back lines to do proper jumps.
