3. BAR PRESENTATION

The CONVERT BAR 2 comes in only one size 45cm wide. Our R&D department focused on the 
shape of the kite to use a unique bar length. 

Reduced bar diametre, new grip, soft EVA molded bar ends, new push away quick release, 
mounted with flying line #8770 – 400kg from COUSIN, the bar has been tested in hard 
conditions to make sure each component is durable and work perfectly within the control 
system.

The CONVERT BAR 2 comes as a 4 line bar with the safety on one front line. It’s easy to make 
the safety work on both front lines (for the PEAK 2 only).

The 5th line kite comes within the bar bag to set the BLIND 2 to full wakestyle mode.
