Our Newest Innovation
Exciting times, after more than three years of development and fine-tuning, we are very happy to bring our V4 Control System range to the market. The ‘Click-In Loop’ is our latest innovation. With a clean & simple design, this all-new quick release incorporates a truly intuitive one-step Click-In reload function.
Car Seatbelt Inspired
The design of the Click-in Loop is inspired by the same principle of a car seat belt. The innovative one-step Click-In reload function is incredibly intuitive. Just like fastening a belt has become a natural action when getting into a car, clicking in to your quick release will become second nature and releasing it at the end of the session will be an automatic action.
Improved Reaction Time
By reloading and releasing before and after every session, you develop important muscle memory that will improve your reaction time. By releasing at the end of the session it is not only quicker than unhooking but it also ensures that the Click-In Loop will have to be reconnected and tested before the start of the next session.
Standard & Expert Mode
The Click-In Loop offers riders a choice of two release modes, the recommended Standard or the optional Expert mode.
• Standard mode offers 100% flag out in all situations by releasing the Click-In Loop or letting go of the bar when un-hooked. (recommended mode)
• Expert mode offers 100% flag out only when the Click-In Loop is released whilst hooked in, allowing riders practicing handle passes to miss the bar without releasing the kite to flag out. (not recommended)
New Compact Option
The new Compact Control System has been developed for those with a shorter reach. It features a compact de-power throw to bring the trim closer to the rider and to stop the bar from migrating out of reach. The small size molded Harness Loop also brings the system closer to the rider.

“The Click-in loop is a step in the right direction to making your kiting experience safer and easier, wherever your adventures may take you.”
