À propos de Kite Attitude

FAQ

TOTEM VARIO, INSTINCT (formely known as « freestyle wave » or « F3W »), OR RACE FOIL WHICH ONE SHOULD YOU CHOOSE ?

We offer 4 different types of universal bars.

Totem Vario Bar

The Totem Vario bar is the most universal bar of all bars. It is the most versatile freeride bar and is likely to appeal to the widest range of riders.

If you are unsure which bar to choose, go for the Totem Vario in 55 cm wide, with 22 meters of lines. The Totem Vario bar comes ready to use: it is ready to sail with all kite on the market. You can adjust the steering lines from 43 cm to 55 cm. In short, you can use the bar with the vast majority of kites on the market: from 4 m² to 14 or even 15 m². 4 or 5 m² (43 cm position), 7 m² (47 cm position), 9 m² (47 or 51 cm position), 12 m² (51 or 55 cm position) and even up to 14 or 15 m² (55 cm position). 

If you think you might one day ride with kites larger than 15 m², go for the Totem 48-60 instead. This bar will give you a wider range of use, and you will still be able to sail with very small kites (5 or 6 square meters in the 48 cm position).

Instinct Bar (freestyle wave or F3W)

The Instinct bar (formerly known as the FreeStyle Wave or F3W) is suitable for freestyle enthusiasts, those who only have one or two kites (a 7 and a 9, for example), and those who will leave the bar permanently connected to the kite.

Race foil bar

The race bar is ideal for those who use large kites (15 m² for example), especially ram air kites, also known as "foil kites", such as Flysurfer Soul, Sonic, VMG, etc.

Carbon Ultra bar

Carbon Ultra bars are fantastic for snowkiting: they are very light and weigh much less in your backpack, especially if you are hiking with two bars! The bars weigh between 170 and 200 g, compared to an average of 450/500 grams for a universal bar.

Carbon Ultra bars are recommended for kite foiling, if you use a hybrid or box kite, but also if you use a single-strut or strutless inflatable kite. They offer unparalleled finesse for better kite control, especially in light winds (to anticipate and prevent the kite from stalling), but also in strong winds. You'll be able to ride in light winds of 5 knots or less...

What are the Benefits of the Totem Vario Universal Control Bar?

The bar is ready to use. It is truly universal and can be used with all kites on the market. Refrain from changing the settings if you are not an expert and call us before modifying it!

It is the only bar on the market that offers such versatility:
- 4-position rear adjustment: you control the responsiveness of the kite according to its surface area. In very strong winds, if you are using a 4 or 5 m2 wing, you can significantly limit the “mosquito” effect by connecting the steering lines at 43 cm to slow down the kite. Conversely, if you want to accelerate the kite (in light winds or if you have added extensions), you can adjust the steering lines to the 55 cm position. In short, you can perfectly control how fast the kite will move by adjusting the rear line spacing.
- Adjusting the length of the steering lines: you can slightly overpower in light winds (or overpower for wake style).
- Adjusting the length of the depower throw: if you are tall, you can raise the cleat; for younger riders, it is possible to lower and move the Clamcleat aerocleat cleat closer to make it more accessible to younger riders.
- You can take apart the bar completely! You can replace absolutely everything. If you bought a bar 10 years ago or more, all spare parts are available on the website!

Add a fifth line, or remove it to go back to four lines. Example: you have a four-line F-One Bandit and a five-line Rebel. When you switch from one to the other, you can add or remove the fifth line.

Why choose the Instinct (Freestyle wave / F3W) Control Bar?

The Instinct bar (formerly known as the “freestyle wave” or F3W) is similar to the Totem bar, with one difference: the ends of the Instinct bar do not allow you to vary the spacing of the steering lines.

If you do freestyle, you will appreciate a short bar for easier handle passes and less interference from the length of the bar during maneuvers.

If you do kiteloops, Instinct freestyle wave bars are more comfortable when you hold the bar like a fishing rod at the rear float.

If you only have two kites (e.g., 7 and 9 m²), a 47 cm wide bar would be sufficient.

If you let the bar permanently connected to the kite (if you have a bar for each kite), there is little point in having a Totem Vario.
