I did try the 10m on my standard 4 line bar in 35 ish knots and it still flew ok - but the leading edge with less support would flare a bit and could be felt through the bar. Will be ok to use your lower Y bar for a quick demo and tweak it later if need be.
i just use a line stopper and a ring - on the 'NON' flag out front line...



What did you ride. Before the cores ??

Still ride my Epic Screamers but my 9 is nearly 4 years old been through storm, surf weed & rock wars and on its last legs.
So got the XR5 after a local demo and apart from the slower turn speed compared to the Screamer, it ticks a whole whole lot of boxes which was good enough for me..

Have to disagree with the low v. I changed the bar on my xr5 to a low split and it didn't make a difference at all. The throw on the core bars are huge and was real uncomfortable ride.
Give the others bars a shot you might find they work fine


Did u make the reverse try, core bar on low v kites?

I actually checked my cabrina bar, It is a 2013 quicklink ids, 55 cm.
So It should work ad It is a high v and not compatible with 2014 cabrina kites.
