You're telling me most people pulling with their hand, when your mouth is (usually, unless you're drinking cocktails from all the hangtime you get from your Evo) available and already closer?NorCalNomad wrote:Maybe he does it with his teeth?cor wrote:How is this different from a clamcleat adjuster?

Well yeah!

It is different because firstly a clam cleat adjuster is in direct line of sight on the centre line itself rather than on the end of the bar and is therefore less likely to disturb steering, and secondly with a clamcleat non-trivial trim changes can be made significantly faster than turning an unergonomically positioned* 'clicker' on the outside end of a bar through multiple 180 degree increments.NorCalNomad wrote:Maybe he does it with his teeth?cor wrote:How is this different from a clamcleat adjuster?

Agreed.bri7 wrote:What I don't get with this bar is that in an overpowered situation the bar encourages the user to reach and deal with a system at at the end of the bar which if not dealt with 100 % correctly (say for example the user grabs the end of the bar) that could potentially lead to initiating a kite loop situation. Say for example this scenario happens out the water on a beach then also then into a lofting scenario.
Why would your bar be at the outer reaches of the throw when you're trying to power it up? The button depowers, the twist powers up.iriejohn wrote: * Especially when using an outstretched arm when reaching the upper limit of throw.
