Contact Control Bar Landkite

Contact Control System for land kites

For 2011 the Access XT, Frenzy and Manta M3 all fly with the same bar, the new Contact-Snow Control System.
With feedback from our Pro riders and customers we have simplified and refined the new control system.
The stall handle has been re-designed with a reduced diameter and attachment to stop line catching.
The back line trimmers have been replaced with foam floats with internal back line trimming to keep the lower leader lines stiffer to reduce tangles for unhooked rider’s.
