Duotone Kite Bars

Duotone Kite Bars 2026

Duotone's control bar system is one of the most refined in kiteboarding. The Click Bar has been the market leader for over a decade, offering a reliable one-click safety release that depower in a single pull regardless of load on the bar. For 2026, Duotone has updated the Click Bar's chicken loop grip and depower cleat for even smoother operation in gloves.

Click Bar vs Trust Bar

The Click Bar is the standard recommendation for freeriders and beginners — a 4-line system with intuitive safety and a proven track record. The Trust Bar is the 5-line variant, offering a dedicated kite-depowering fifth line for wave riders and advanced riders who want precision trim in powered conditions. Both bars are fully compatible with the entire 2026 Duotone kite range.

Expert Advice

Line length affects power delivery significantly. Longer lines (24m) give more depower range and are preferred for lighter winds. Shorter lines (19m) are used by wave riders who want less kite movement above them in shore break.

Q: What bar length is best for a beginner?
A: A 42–44cm bar is standard for most riders. The Click Bar comes in 42cm and 50cm options — choose based on wingspan.

Q: Does the Duotone Click Bar work with non-Duotone kites?
A: Technically yes, but we recommend brand-matched bars for warranty and safety reasons.

Q: Can I replace just the lines on my Click Bar?
A: Yes — Duotone sells replacement line sets for the Click Bar. We stock them in-store.
