Yep Nemo does the qr has a hook. Which year ? Price ? Mp.
I don't understand why you show me the infinity bar? I have already the 3.0 airstyle with my sonic but there is no hook /loop system.
I can drill the bar to fix a loop but I don't see any option to fix some hook on the QR.
You can see on the pic I posted that all my lines and trim are coming from the infinity. I just change the bar and QR and I put the depower line simple because the hole of the north bar is too small for a double line. That's it.

Maybe it's easier to fix a hook at this QR
instead of drilling a whole for the safety through the other one!?! ;-)
How much power/force this hook has to be build for?
I have some ideas in my brain... ;-)

The force on it also depends on how strong the forces on the bar are, how powers you go out and your weight.

I already had them breaking few times.

Today I used my 15 sonic in 18 20 knots. With the old north bar it's a nightmare. The QR is too old and donot unspin nothing. I made the main hole of this bar bigger and it's scratching my depower line so I'll put back my original bar on tomorrow. To block the bar finally I prefer the first system that I've put on the infinity bar. A handle that I fixed on the stopper ball.

not when fully powered up...that's what the microloop is there for. Frontlines take all force when fully DEPOWERED.
