// The Core: The Infinity 2.0 QR
A bar is only as good as its quick release.
Together with the Infinity 2.0 Control Bar, we introduce our new Infinity 2.0
QR. At first glance you can only imagine how brilliant this component really
is. First of all, it fulfills the French safety norms to perfection, which
only very few kiting quick releases do. The force needed to release the QR is
minimal in relation to the load. Even with 400 kilograms of load, the release
force remains under ten dekanewtons (similar to kilograms). The QR design is
optimized to be resistant against snow, sand, dirt and small rocks, as much as
possible. But that is still not all. We focused on the smallest of details.
There is no metal part at the end of the loop that can become tangled behind
the harness hook. The system is intuitive and can be reset easily and quickly.
In addition, we made sure that you can release dependably, even when wearing
thick gloves. Disruptive or dangerous accidental releases are practically
eliminated. A heavy component? Hardly. The Infinity 2.0 QR weighs only 157
grams and offers the most compact construction of all chicken loops with a
comparable range of functions.
// Chickenstick instead of Chickendick
On the Infinity 2.0 Control Bar,
we replace the Chickendick with another of our innovations: the Chickenstick.
While most Chickendicks get stiff in low temperatures and barely work, the
Chickenstick is stiff from the start and can be attached to the harness hook
quickly and easily with the help of an elastic connection. Broken Chickendicks
or accidental releasing is basically eliminated with this Chickenstick.
// Endless Rotations
Only a few bars can completely
untwist, our first Infinity bar could do it. But the Infinity 2.0 Control Bar
can do it so much better. A special construction allows the Infinity 2.0 QR to
swivel even more smoothly than ever, without being susceptible to rusting or
blocking when exposed to sand, dirt, ice or salt. The new Double V shaped
Eyelet leads the depower lines vertically through the bar. This improves
comfort and handling when holding the bar for one-handed flying and unhooked
tricks. We thought of more, too. The depowerloop ‘locks’ when unhooking and
doesn’t dangle around. For real wake-style purists, we also have the option to
make the depowerloop bigger. And so that no wish remains unfulfilled, each
Infinity 2.0 Control Bar has the option to use a “Releasable Suicide HP-Mode”.
You get the accessories for this delivered with the bar free of charge.
// An Abundance of Features
So, endless rotations, new quickrelease, chicken stick, options for
customization for unhooked riding and still the Infinity 2.0 Control Bar has
more tricks up its sleeve. This is our first bar with a quickly adjustable
stopperball, which we recommend, above all, for advanced riders and constant
winds. This is a luxury that we no longer want to go without. If you are
surprised by a gust, you can still push the stopper up, together with the bar.
Still not enough features? You can adjust the bar width on the winders at any
time. Finally we also slightly revised our trimmer again. It’s now more
precise and more user-friendly. The control bar remains clean and clearly laid
out, despite a multitude of functions. Functionality and simplicity: have you
seen a control bar that combines this better?
