The all new Powerdrive IDS control system has been redesigned from the bottom up to accommodate many new features while streamlining its user interface.
Cabrinha has internalized the IDS landing line into the main depower line. The landing line now occupies its own chamber alongside the depower main line for added protection and a streamlined interface. With the all new internal IDS security system, Cabrinha makes good on its promise that performance and security are no longer mutually exclusive. The all new internal Intelligent Depower System (IDS) puts the 4 line security right at your fingertips when you need it and out of your way when you don’t.It has been internalized to protect it from the elements and to simplify the control system. The new IDS landing line is virtually invisible while riding but right there when you need it.
The all new OverSlide™ stopper unit is a sliding system that allows the rider to temporarily let go of the control system to unspin the twists in their control lines. It also serves as a means to contain the bungeed power adjusters. OverSlide™ is designed to slide out of the way when forcefully pushed with the control system. OverSlide™ can be positioned anywhere on the main depower line and the rider can choose their desired sliding tension. The all new OverSlide IDS now gives you the freedom to spin your bar when and where you want along the depower main line. You can choose the release tension and position Overslide where you want.
The Overslide IDS unit is a convenience item which provides the user a temporary place to let go of the control bar to unspin their lines. It is now a sliding mechanism which does not have a fixed position on the depower main line. The Overslide IDS sleeve is free to interactively move to the position you select. Overslide IDS can also be used to manage the tension and placement position of your bungeed trim adjusters. The optional installation of this accessory item will modify the IDS Operation instructions on page 20 of the user manual Specifically, these instructions will supersede the subsection for Depower on Demand (stage 1) operation.
Installation does not affect Absolute Depower (stage 2), which remains as the method of releasing residual power from your kite.

Operation
1) The operation of the Overslide IDS unit is simple. Position the unit in your desired location along the depower main line.
Many people ride with the unit set at the point where they can reach the power adjusters but where it does not interfere with normal depower.
2) Squeeze the tension ring to achieve your desired holding tension. The tighter you squeeze, the more difficult it is to move the unit. Separate the tension ring to reduce the load tension.
3) To spin your control system, place the bar up near the Overslide IDS unit. Prior to letting the bar go, spin the bar in the direction needed to take the twists out of your control lines. When the lines have corrected themselves, grab ahold of the bar and resume steering. Take note that you are holding the bar in the correct orientation. The red grip pattern should be on the left and the
gray grip pattern should be on the right.
4) To achieve Depower on Demand (Stage 1 depower) push the control bar into the Overslide IDS unit, pushing the unit towards the kite until the desired depower is achieved. The resistance to move the Overslide IDS unit will depend on the amount of tension you choose on the tension ring. Higher ring tensions will require more force to push the Overslide IDS unit towards the kite to achieve Depower on Demand’s first stage of depower.
5) If need be, you can re-position the unit back to your desired location by sliding Overslide down the main line.
