2021 Click Bar Duotone closeup

Not a review, more a closer look at the changes this years. At the time of recording there was little info or pictures so this will give you an opportunity to see the new lines close up on the click bar

Looks like the lines will last longer, i wonder breaking strength vs older style

FYI⛔️, I’ve been checking with Duotone on this odd 5th line you see in the video. I noticed a big problem with this setup as this line will be loaded‼️ Duotone have said there is apparently a specific 2021 5th line which they are now sorting for me. Make sure you get the latest 2021 5th line‼️

Pacemaker thanks, noticed the 5th line you received was North branded to further evidence it being a different season. I’m also waiting on the 2021 5th line which my dealer tells me Duotone are being coy about....??.
Question - what’s behind your comment “ I noticed a big problem....this line will be loaded”? I have 4/5 line kites so curious about the meaning behind this comment. Thx

Since 2019: when you install your 5. Line the old left stearing line becomes the new 5. Line and the new Line (from the 5. Element Upgrade Kit) becomes the new left stearing line.
This needs to be done to have a 5. Line safety (istead of a single frontline safety). When you want to use your 5-line Kites with a single frontline safety you can just install the new line from the Upgrade Kit as the 5. Line so it will get less load (like ist was done in 2018).

You wouldn't want to get those lines wrapped around your legs, i wonder how these thinner lines behave in swirling water, there definitely lighter aren't they?

And a bit disappointing they didn’t upgrade the lower center lines (red and grey) to the new type. They are still the old style lines.
