heard about this problem before, and now it happend to me as well.
Here what happens:

I"m in Brazil, riding in the lagoon close to Cumbuco.
up to 30 knots, flying a prototype of the Vegas06 in size 16...so pretty powered (depower strap not pulled!). Having lots of fun and doing big airs.

Now I wanted to do another big air and while I"m getting boosted, one steering line got loose. Yes, it got loose, at the kite, it didn"t break! Don"t ask my why...
Anyway, I"m up some meters and the kite starts to loop and I crash hard...now I want to release the Iron Hear quick release...and the metal part at the end of the loop gets stucked on my harness hook....
Luckily nothing around and I read about the problem before, and luckily I realized it quickly...so I pulled it out and the kite was released to the 5th line.
Nothing happend...

Please see the pictures below and if you ride this bar, check if it passes through. If not, make your hook wieder so it will fit.

I contacted North as well to take care of this matter. Please tell anyone you see with this bar, if he checked the functionality. You may save his life doing so.
