Are Cabrinha bars actually safe?

What's to say? I called Carbinha over every issue I had with my bars. In simple terms, that was a waste of time. Let's hope the children testing their gear get it right one day.

I have used Cabrinha bars for many years and never had any issues. I'm pretty sure we would have heard if the bars weren't safe and safety release didn't work.

2014 bar not floating in fresh water has been hashed over in other forums.

2015 bar release works fine. Just difficult to reset. Go ahead and video a release followed by a reset... No editing.

My Cabrinha 2015 bar was a few months old when the depower mainline (the line in the black tube) broke and my kite fell out of the sky in the open ocean. I was lucky that this did not happen during a high jump :P, this could have caused serieus injuries!
I think the quality of the cabrinha bar's is really poor. Also one of my friend's floating bar 2016 ends just broke off after a loop.
To mention a positive thing: the chicken loop is very nice...
Overall, no Cabrinha bar for me next time.
