What bar for PL Synergy 12m and V1 16m

Postby waZki » Sun Dec 27, 2009 12:50 pm

Hi all
I'm new to this forum and I would like to say hallo to all kite funs.

I recently bought PL Synergy 12m and I have my Venom 16m. I was using 60cm zero3 bar with Venom
Now... I think this may be bit too big for the 12m Syn, what size would you recommend to go with both 12m Syn and 16m Venom?
I was thinking about 50 cm Ozone bar http://www.powerkiteshop.com/ozone-mega ... ol-bar.htm - do you think this would work with both arcs ?

Thanks,
Damian

I personally like the 07 bar, strong and does what it should.

I do not know how the 12 Syn turns, the 12 Charger is very fast if compared to V16 (tested with 60 bar) and it needs to be used more than a bit to get the timing. A 50 bar will slow it but still big difference with the V16. And also the Syn is asking for the rear line safety setting (07 bar) .
Not sure if the navigator bar works fine with a Syn because of the Y front.

May be you should have some ride with your bar and see how it's working. Then, if you do feel it's to fast, any simple shorter bar can be adapted.

Thanks for advices!

I can’t afford new zero7 bar with lines or navigator. I will test my Syn 12m with 60cm bar and see how it flies.

the 16v1 is a total slug in comparison to the 15m syn so a 12 will only be faster ...... i really had to yank my 60cm bar on the 16v1 but on my 15m syn i hardly have to touch it ....... maybe you could cut your 60cm bar down to 550cm ..... ??!! its a comprimise

my last post is bollox.... problem is u need to have a short bar for the fast as fook 12m syn but u need the length for the slow arse 16v1 ...... i had to yank the crap out of the 60cm bar on my old 16v1 but on my 15m syn i could get away with a shorter bar .

if you were the other way round you'd be laughing ..... my advice is to buy a cheaper/older bar to suit the kite you use least

Hi,
I have been using 60 cm bar with the Syn12. It was not to quick - for me quick=nice. : )
If I were you, I would try it first before doing anything else.
Between V16 and Syn12 there is a great difference in kite handeling, not only the turning speed, so you will have to adapt to the new feel anyway. The Syn is much better kite overall in my opinion.
