How would you know what's best if not out yet?
Anyways, the FS bar is not the greatest invention on the Planet, far from it. Judging the bar by the chicken loop and floaters is not the best in my books.
Put it this way, if I set the FS bar on the widest, the knot which enables that is the line catcher. Super annoying. The chicken loop is secured with a small ring (v2) which is another line catcher, and can be pulled out completely risking opening. The bar itself has plastic ends, completely off the current trends with soft rubber. And much more...
But, flying a foil is not about the bar. The bar is a tool for flying skills. If it isn't, the race bars would be super complex, but they are not. Super simple that is.
Just saying.

PS
As above, splashing a kite with tap water after salt water bath is a go. No one talks about it, but salt is a no-no. Salt plus sand is a tube kites cloth and bladder killer as well. My kites are still super crisp after years of kiting (150-200 seshs/year 90% on 11m).
If your kite has no vents on tips, well, that is a bugger. Install one than and wash/dry properly every now and then.
