Navigator Pro Control System - Short Throw 2027

The new Navigator Pro Short Throw shortens the bar travel, bringing the Trim handle 10cm closer, and making it easier for smaller riders to reach the bar when fully depowered. We recommend using the Short Throw with 12m and smaller kites to achieve enough depower in high winds. The Navigator Pro Short Throw features the same components and performance benefits as the Navigator Pro, including the Connect V2 Quick Release and highest quality Dyneema SK99 Pro Lines. It is compatible with all Connect V2 Loops.

Includes: Control Bar, Connect V2 Quick Release with Security Finger, 12+10m Pro Lines (Ø1.55mm Front Lines, Ø1.3mm Rear Lines), Connect V2 Freeride Loop, Standard Leash

Technology

What makes it work.

Auto-unwind

Smooth, reliable front-line auto-untwist and frictionless rotation in all temperatures, with Depower Main Line and Landing Line running inside durable TPU tubes, stacked front to back for one-handed flying.

Universally compatible with any kite

All Navigators feature a Low-V split compatible with any Low-V bridled kite, and have equal-length connectors for easy swaps. For use with High-V kites, pair with the High-V Split Kit.

Refined Titanium SS Centrepiece

The stainless-steel centrepiece, featuring a titanium PVD coating, is smooth, strong, and wear-resistant, with a generous geometry that allows for free bar travel and reliable auto-unwind.

Highest-quality Dyneema Pro Lines

Strong, ultra-low-stretch SK99 Pro Lines reduce drag and deliver a direct response, with 1.55mm front and 1.3mm rear lines to limit shrinkage, plus modular 12+10m split lengths.

Safe Connect V2 QR

Extra-secure single-action reload Quick Release with a stiffer security finger on the QR, plus smaller loop and 20mm extra travel, helps minimise the risk of accidental unhooking or release.

Adjustable bar lengths +/- 5cm

Fine-tune the turning speed of your kite. Three adjustable sizes 50-55cm (L), 45-50cm (M) and 38-43cm (S). To change your bar length, pull the bar end cassettes out and rotate 180 degrees.

Spinning leash attachment ring

The oval-shaped leash pin ring is elongated for easier fastening of the leash carabiner, and spins to help prevent your landing line from twisting.

Super Comfortable Grip

The most comfortable bar grip on the market, now with better abrasion resistance and colour retention. Tactile offset finger bar, so you can feel when the control bar is oriented correctly.

20% stronger and lighter

The lighter the bar, the less inertia it needs to spin. For 2027, a new fiber-filled polymer internal truss keeps it light while boosting strength by 20%.

Toolless Modular Loops

The Connect V2 Modular Toolless InterLoop system is compatible with three interchangeable loops: Freeride (included), Freestyle (with a Freestyle Leash Ring), and Surf Slider (rope harness).
