It carries over everything that makes the standard Pro bar the top of North's range: front-line auto-unwind, a 20% stronger yet 20% lighter build, and a 4-line setup that flies just as well with another brand's kite. Because the shortened throw means less overall depower range, it's best paired with 12m and smaller kites, so you've still got enough depower when the wind picks up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4-line kitesurfing control bar, best paired with 12m and under kites\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e20% stronger and lighter Pro construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnect V2 Quick Release with front-line auto-unwind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSK99 Dyneema Pro lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShort throw trim handle, 10cm closer for easier reach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeginner to advanced riders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur Test Team Thoughts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"The Navigator Pro Gen 2 is the premium bar from North's kite range, with all the latest safety features you'd expect but here in its Short Throw configuration. This brings the bar and the trim cleat around 10cm\/4 inches closer to the rider. It'll fly any other brand's four-line kite too. The Pro version is 20% lighter but at the same time 20% stronger than the standard Navigator Gen 2 bar. The bar uses SK99 Pro lines, which are thinner but stronger than the standard lines. It also features ceramic bearings in its swivel system, built into the quick release which North market as their Auto Unwind System, we like the feel of the bar and the texture of the EVA.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"North","offers":[{"title":"45 to 50cm","offer_id":58429350445387,"sku":"NA-BAR-NAVP27-45-SH","price":599.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0912\/8208\/0075\/files\/NNorthNavigatorProGen2ShortThrowBarmainimage.jpg?v=1789123548","url":"https:\/\/www.thewatersportscentre.com\/products\/navigator-pro-gen-2-short-throw-kite-control-bar","provider":"The Watersports Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
