APEX CONTROL BAR

The Lacuna control bar is now on version 3 with the largest update in look, but still no compromise in quality and performance, with only incremental improvements that truly do make a difference.

APEX v3

Type of Rider For the rider who wants an easy to use, practical bar with all the features that matter and enhance your kite’s performance. Features that continue to make the Apex bar industry leading are - Easy reset quick release, - Ball bearing spinning handle, and - Visible single line flag safety system. Rider Level Beginner to Advanced Size Options 46cm 51cm Performance The simplicity of the ISO21853 compliant click-in seat-belt style Quick Release means there is no reason for you to hesitate to activate it. The reset can be done quickly and effortlessly in moments. The large leash attachment ring is easy to locate for beginners and for the pro’s can be set up for unhooked wake-style freestyle riding if needed. The cleat trim system is uncomplicated and with its finger loop grab handle and Velcro keep on the side of the cleat to prevent the tail from flapping around and getting caught in the lines. The ball bearing spinning handle enables your lines to untwist with minimal and often no input from the rider. We find this superior to auto-untwist bars that have added complexity when rigging and can negatively affect the quality of the control bar input to the kite and in turn the feedback from the kite to the rider. The updated formulation of the quick release loop and locking tube materials allow them to be more pliable and easier to use with a multitude of modern harness hooks. These parts are black to distinguish from previous season grey parts. The bar end floats can now fold down closer to the bar for more compact rolling of the lines and storage, with no drop in performance. Kitting The Lacuna Apex v3 bar comes with 1 x medium length leash 1 x replacement QR-bungy set with tool.
