That does look like a nice setup,
Except, I'm shocked they still have a finger loop style safety.
Haven't these designers learned that those are incredibly difficult to pull when you're wearing gloves?
That kinda rules out having a good safety release for snowkiting and cold water riding

Amsteel blue line and a swivel would have been nice touches too. It looks pro tho!

The safety is a push away style same as Cabrinha, Naish, etc.
that red loop is for the leash line, which you are clipped into all the time anyway.

| Tried this bar last night, its sick! spinning works great and the locking CL when you unhook is a really nice feature. Also the depower sheet cleat works so much smoother, which always been a big gripe for me.
