stopper ball makes this possible...................good feel thru the bar and lines to the kite..........impressed! Or should I have not answered

I'm just curious about something. I'm really looking for Charger riders on Navi bar tridude but it's interesting to know that you like the Navi bar
as a stand alone.markite - 30-1-2012 at 06:21 AM
myself and three other local riders - what do you want to know from us? It has it's pros and cons.flyjump - 30-1-2012 at 06:22 AM
Mark, do you have access to the PL dealer kit for 2012?markite - 30-1-2012 at 08:33 AM
yes I do, hmm let me have a peak at it again ....
just back from a weekend kiting event and had a great day yesterday - perfect conditions but grabbing the adjustment line on the nav bar was driving
me crazy more so than any other time I remember - probably because I needed to adjust it on the fly more often as I skirted around a turbulent zone
downwind of an island (normally set it and leave it until landing).BeamerBob - 30-1-2012 at 08:45 AM
I'll be getting Nav bars for the Phantom IIs.tridude - 30-1-2012 at 04:50 PM

no problem......if you need any further feedback feel free to ask.......again a very versitile bar, solid safety......Bladerunner - 30-1-2012 at 05:39 PM
I use my Medium Nav bar on my 15 Charger on largest option and on my 10m Syn on the inside. I still use my large 07 on my 18 Phanny and 15 Syn.
Also use the Nav' on my 460 and it is a good match.
Are you looking for Pos / Neg things about why we use one ?
For me : #1 positive is the adjustable stopper. #1 negetive is the Y. It makes it impossible to fix an invert at the bar + the lines have a tendency
to get caught in the Y connection.Feyd - 30-1-2012 at 08:04 PM
I'm not so much lookng for the pros and cons. I like my Navis and have removed what I consider the cons.
I just have a theory about Charger owners and I want to see if it's plausible.flyjump - 30-1-2012 at 08:21 PM
Youve got my attention mr kruggeokite - 30-1-2012 at 09:29 PM
The Y connection kills it for me. The ability to pull a specific top line of the kite when recovering from the water/dry lake bed is an advantage of
the old style bar.BeamerBob - 30-1-2012 at 09:32 PM
I consider the y line a con as well and will look into building a a Nav from scratch and putting lighter equal length lines on it.Feyd - 31-1-2012 at 02:31 PM
I dumped the Y after my third or forth time out with it. I've been riding my modded Navi bars for 3 seasons and love 'em.Bladerunner - 31-1-2012 at 05:44 PM
I am not clear on what you hope to figure out here ?
Are you wondering how many folks are flying Chargers on some other kind of bar?
I stick with stock because I don't trust my own judgement enough to tinker?
:duh:
