I had the 2.8m Century which I tried on an Ozone Turbo bar - but because the turbo bar is steering mainly with the brakes, the Century tended to over react and stall on turns. It works great on some kites, but not the century which prefers front line input. The depower bar will be worse again so sorry, no, it won't really work.

You will be much better off attaching a strop to your handles and using a harness - there have been a few threads on that in the past which shouldn't be too hard to track down...

A strop is used to the connect the two control bar handles for use with a harness.

If you check the second post here, you will find links to several threads that discuss it.
