My Comments:

Had chance to take the new Sensor 2s bar out for a spin.

The good

The new swivel system is excellent, as soon as you throw the bar around after a loop it goes out smoother than anything i have ever seen. It should be said this was a low wind situation without to much pressure but it really was silky smooth so i don't expect it to be much worse otherwise.

The depower/Trim rope is now a bungee kind. Not sure about this one, kind of a hassle when its not stretched as i wanted some depower for a self launch but i can live with that. Once your up its excellent as you have less line flying around when you trim it.

The long thick virtual 5th line is now thin so less weight and less space take on the bar. its reinforced where the front lines are connected.

There is also no snagging when you move the bar up and down in when turning the bar as there tends to be on the single plastic depower lines. Something i've had issues with on other bars. This slides perfectly

Comes with a short leash and small chicken loop.

Then the bad part and a pretty sad thing on a otherwise great product

Norway Prices
(Prices may vary, Europe vat 19% Norway 25)

Pro chicken loop 23,50$
Chickenstick 11,7$
Wakestyle sensor 2s kite: 2 small ropes and a ring for suicide con 23,50$

So basically thats like 58$ to go proper unhooked. Sorry Core. I could live with paying for the Loop and stick but a couple of ropes and a small ring should be included in the very expensive bar.


So here you go a noobs first impression.
