universal bar stopper

To keep the kite control bar within reach, it is a good idea to place a bar stopper on the center line. Kiteboarders prefer to be able to adjust the location of the stopper for different conditions and tricks.

Since the center lines are usually sleeved inside a hard rubber tube, it's was a challenge to find a mechanism and materialization that would provide accurate clamping in wet, dry and sandy conditions.

The patented self constricting design will be made available for Ø8, Ø10 and Ø12mm tubing in summer 2017.

More information soon.
