Powerlock™ 3 Control System




CabrinhaKites - Contra with Powerlock™ 3 Control System
: "The Contra specialized light wind kite comes with an enhanced control system that allows you take full advantage of all the Contra has to offer.

We’ve made many tweaks and modifications based on our invaluable customer feedback to deliver the most cutting edge control system to date.

Override™ 2
The new Override™ stopper has been re-designed for more positive engagement and disengagement. The new internal catch mechanism is now mechanic instead of friction. It makes re-setting Override onto its sleeve a snap. Literally!

The external shape of Override™ 2 accomplishes two things. First, the new ergonomics allow for a much better grip on the fitting when re-setting it onto its sleeve. Secondly the design integrates the CAS Power Adjusters for a much cleaner and more streamline operation of the kite’s trim. We’ve added elastic to the Power Adjusters so that they maintain positive tension no matter where they are positioned.

Power Adjuster
The CAS line extenders keep the adjustment of the centerline adjustment strap within easy reach at all time. The added bungee in the line helps to keeps the extenders free from tangling with your leaders by keeping them parallel with the centerline.



2 to 1 Pulley System
The Powerlock 3 Control System features pulleys on each end of the bar which reduce the length the rider must push the control bar to achieve the desired amount of trim or depower.

Softened EVA grip
We have reduced the diameter of the control bar and have softened the EVA grip for a more hand friendly feel.

Powerlock Ready
The Contra Control System is ready for the optional Powerlock accessory."
