Quad Control

Presenting the 2017 Quad Control bar. Identical in design to the 5th Element bar, it’s best suited to 4 line kite models where the front line safety setup is steadfast. When released – via the Iron Heart IV – the Quad Control ensures that the kite rests powerless on the water at the edge of the wind window, allowing you time to gather yourself safely before relaunching. With a flowing feel, the Quad Control is responsive, straightforward and reliable.
