Hey Guys

I am looking at replacing my North bar as my old bar is starting to fall apart. Plastic center piece on the bar is cracked.

If anyone is selling one here in Perth let me know must be in good condition.

Q. I have flown 4 line kites before, my current bar is a 5 line. What would your preference be 4 or 5 line set up.

Also is the 2014 bar an improvement on the 2013 bar.

Cheers

Hi,

If you have used both four and five line setups before then just go with what you like more. Everyone has different views so go with what you think.


Regarding the bar, I think WA Surf have a new 2014 one for sale. This is what I would get. I really like new gear that's one year superseded. I am yet to find any piece of kite gear that gets 40% better in one year that justifies me buying it when faced with a new but one year superseded option that's 40% cheaper. Others disagree.
