Overview
One of the most valuable features of the Crossbow Control System with OverrideTM is its ability to immediately and completely
depower the kite by positioning the control bar into OverrideTM mode. By pushing the control bar past the OverrideTM ball and
releasing it, the kite will immediately depower and fall from the sky. The Crossbow’s approach to security is to make it a seamless
part of the way the kite functions. There is nothing to “turn on” no handle to manually activate. For the first time in kitesurfing’s
history you, the rider have absolute control of the power of your kite.
Relaunch
The Crossbow’s unique bridle allows the rider to perform a water relaunch by simply pulling on the left or right rear lines. Similar to
Recon, the wingtip will rise out of the water and allow the rider to position the kite into a side launch position. This is all possible
without the use of a 5th line or additional wing tip fittings.
Override – Hooked In
The security system can be operational when the rider is either hooked in to the harness loop or unhooked (with an attached
leash). If a rider chooses the hooked in option, they must use and Cabrinha harness loop with security pin.
Override – Unhooked
The security system can be operational when the rider is either hooked in to the harness loop or unhooked (with an attached
leash). If a rider chooses the unhooked in option, they must use a Cabrinha Bypass leash attached to the Harness loop.
- Attach the bypass leash to your harness
- Attach the clip to the harness loop
CAUTION: If using a BYPASSTM Leash on the Override control system, releasing the QRS will separate you from the kite. The
Override CS is equipped with an alternate leash attachment point above the CAS which will allow the rider to remain attached to
the left front line. See “Self Rescue with the Crossbow”
