North Navigator Pro Gen 2 Kite Control Bar

The North Navigator Pro Gen 2 sits at the top of North's control bar range, built to feel effortless in the hand and disappear into the background of a session. Front-line auto-unwind takes the swivelling out of your hands entirely after a loop, the rubberised EVA grip holds firm and comfortable whether it's wet, dry, hot or cold, and the whole bar is 20% stronger while also being 20% lighter than before. It's a 4-line bar, so it isn't locked to North kites, it'll happily fly a 4-line kite from any other brand too.

  • 4-line kitesurfing control bar, compatible with other brands' 4-line kites
  • Fibre-filled polymer truss with a titanium-coated stainless steel centrepiece
  • Connect V2 Quick Release with front-line auto-unwind
  • SK99 Dyneema Pro rear lines and grey front lines
  • Rubberised EVA grip for comfort and hold in all conditions
  • Intermediate to advanced riders

The North Navigator Pro Gen 2 is North's new flagship control bar, engineered as a major evolution of North's control bar platform, with 70% of its parts redesigned. The headline feature is the auto-unwind on the QR to allow the front lines untwist themselves as you ride, so looping sessions don't end in a mess. It's built lighter and stronger throughout, with a smoother over bar cleat trim.

  • Premium kitesurfing control bar
  • Moulded, lightweight construction
  • Auto-unwind front lines
  • Max-traction, wear-resistant grip
  • Connect Quick Release, ISO 21853:2020 approved
  • Dyneema SK99 Pro flying lines
  • For intermediate to advanced riders

Our Test Team Thoughts

"The Navigator Pro Gen 2 is the premium bar from North's kite range, with all the safety features you'd expect. 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 Pro 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."

Performance & Feel

The auto-unwind is the feature that changes how the bar feels session to session. Where a standard bar needs a manual spin after a kiteloop, the Pro's ceramic-bearing swivel, built into the Connect V2 Quick Release, handles it for you, so you stay focused on the kite rather than untangling lines. That same attention runs through the grip: the rubberised EVA offers triple the comfort of a standard grip and holds securely whether your hands are wet, cold, or baking in the sun.

Underneath the grip, the fibre-filled polymer truss and titanium-coated stainless steel centrepiece are what deliver the strength-to-weight jump over the standard Navigator Gen 2, 20% stronger while also being 20% lighter, and the centrepiece is refined for noticeably smoother bar travel through trimming. The Connect V2 Quick Release keeps the same single-action reload and Security Finger as the standard bar, reducing the risk of accidental unhooking or release, and it's ISO-21853 certified. The SK99 Dyneema Pro rear lines are thinner and stronger than standard lines for a more direct feel, while the grey front lines are specced to prevent uneven line shrinkage over time. Bold red-on-port, blue-on-starboard colour coding makes orientation quick at a glance too.

If you want the same reliable, cross-brand-compatible bar without the premium price, the standard Navigator Gen 2 covers the same ground. If you want the lightest, strongest, most refined version of it, this is the one.
