Frame and Bridle swaps
We use SkyShark II frame and have found it extremely tough, but nothing is indestructible... So the
kites have a quick-release bridle which allows you to swap frame and/or bridle in just a few
minutes.
If you are making a swap, it's important to re-knot in the standard way.
Top
Post the bridle loop under the frame, just above the connector, then flip the loop over the
connector, refit the top spreader and then pull tight.
Bottom
Post the loop underneath the frame, but this time just
below
the connector, flip over and tighten.
Nocks and ferrules
We use oversize (10cm long) ferrules with a stopper glued to the ferrule. The assembly is lightly
taped to the bottom leading edge spar so either top or bottom tube can be swapped out quickly.
End nocks are also slightly oversize; they are held in place with a thin slice of the rubber band/MTB
tube – again this allows you to swap quickly.
