Trust Bar Quad Control 2027 - simple, dependable control for almost every Duotone kite discipline
The Duotone Trust Bar Quad Control 2027 is built for riders who want a straightforward, reliable control system that can move between different kite sizes and disciplines. Its design is deliberately functional: a familiar front-line depower setup, adjustable bar width and line length, high-quality flying lines and Duotone’s proven Click-In safety architecture.
For 2027 the Trust Bar continues to focus on versatility and serviceability rather than unnecessary complexity. Updated pigtail details make the setup cleaner and easier to trim, while FLITE99 2.0 backlines and FLITE99 2.0+ frontlines create a direct steering connection. Whether you ride freeride, Big Air, wave, freestyle or foil, the Trust Bar is designed to be the dependable interface between you and the kite.
Why choose the Trust Bar Quad Control 2027?
- Click-In Safety System for quick, intuitive reconnection after release

Why choose the Trust Bar over a more complex bar?
Some riders simply prefer a traditional depower system they can see, feel and adjust quickly. The Trust Bar keeps that familiar layout while combining it with modern lines and safety hardware. It is easy to understand, easy to move between kites and a strong choice for riders who value function over novelty.
Direct steering with FLITE99 2.0
Low-stretch lines make a noticeable difference to how clearly steering input reaches the kite. The 2027 Trust Bar uses FLITE99 2.0 backlines and reinforced frontlines to maintain a direct feel while providing the strength needed for powered riding.
Adjustable for a full quiver
The S-M and M-L bar options use adjustable widths, allowing the same bar to work with smaller and larger kite sizes. Combined with line-length options, that makes the Trust Bar particularly practical for riders who own several kites or switch between disciplines.
Safety and reset
Duotone’s Click-In safety system is designed to be intuitive to reconnect after activation. The Iron Heart safety architecture remains central to the bar, giving riders a familiar release and reset process when it matters.
Construction and technology
- FLITE99 2.0 backlines: thin, low-stretch lines for responsive steering.
- FLITE99 2.0+ frontlines: stronger front line specification for load-bearing duties.
- DPL24 depower line: Dyneema-based depower line with a protective braided cover.
- Metal V-distributor: durable and easy to assemble or remove when adjusting the setup.
- Integrated floaters and flip-flop width adjustment: clean ergonomics with practical bar-size tuning.
Who is the Trust Bar Quad Control 2027 for?
The Trust Bar 2027 is suitable for beginners through to advanced riders because its strength is simplicity. It is especially good for anyone who wants one dependable 4-line bar for a mixed Duotone quiver, schools or riders who prefer a conventional depower cleat rather than the Click Bar’s on-the-bar trim system.
Available sizes
S-M/12-24, S-M/22-24 and M-L/22-24 in the supplied SS27 data. These are bar/line configurations, so they remain in their original setup notation rather than being converted to kite-size numbers.
