GEN 9 PUNCHOUT  TRIM LOOP

Your Gen 3 Shift bar features the ISO compliant Gen 9 Punchout trim loop. 

Designers Tip:
The push release cuff has a lip for improved grip on one side and is smooth 
on the opposite side.  

It is important that you attach the trim loop with the lip of the cuff facing 
you. The smooth side faces away from the rider as it reduces the chance of 
accidental activation of the release cuff, should you bump it on the edge of 
a board during deep water starts.

Raised lip faces rider
