I’m always using on suicide mode, clean the bar after launching, washing after use even inside the tube... in my case the cover is rubbing, been worst on the end edges. I know other local kiters without this issue so it doesn’t happen to all the click bars.andikite wrote: ↑Wed Feb 17, 2021 9:40 pmHow you use your chicken loop?

Hello, i have got the exact same issue.... bought the bar in October, used 10 times and the safety line start to wears out despite being washed every single time after the session. Also the bar has the same wear as yours. What do you guys think? Not too sure when the wear of the safety line is becoming risky... when do you need to replace it?
Mine is 2021, different grip so I can’t help with that.
The safety line, keep following up, you might need to change safety line and tube as it is rubbing the line.
Mine got to this point after 2 month and changed it. I will change it again soon with a new tube.

I think using the o-ring of leash attachment in suicide mode helps to avoid this damage because you keep all your red line inside the tube all the time.
If you use in normal mode, when you land your kite and red line loose the tension, it drops to the sand due to the weight of o-ring and leash. When you put back the red line inside the tube you automatically are introducing sand in the tube and it will increase the possibility of wear.
I always use my clickbars in suicide mode and have no problem of wear in safety line...
