FDS Setup manual for SPEED 2 ... page 1of 2
Lay out your kite at a windless place with enough space to unwind your flying lines completely, fix your kite by
something heavy. Make sure your front lines are not twisted. To untwist them, spin your Chickenloop.

1. Remove the FLS
We recommend removing the Front Line Safety (FLS) to avoid any conflict with two safety systems!
Just remove both ELCs [Easy Line Connectors] at both front lines 6 meters above the bar [1.] and the
FLS-Endline from the front line [2.].
The FDS requires a 7-9mm inside diameter ring at the
end of the depower leader line to avoid the FDS-Weak-
pointline getting stuck. Replace, if necessary, the existing
ring [1.] with the larger one included in the FDS-Kit.
To remove the FLS, just remove the
stopper ball and open the connection
of the front line and the FLS-Endline!

In order to replace the ring you have to
open the bowline knot at the trimmer.
You have to use a bowline knot to
reconnect the depower leader line to
the trimmer!
A short manual in the „support area“ on
flysurfer.com explains how to make a
bowline knot.

2. Connect the FDS-Line to the kite
FDS-B1
FDS-A1
FDS-C1
To connect the FDS-Bridles to the kite you have to take three new LCLs [Little Connection Lines] colour
„stronger pink“
and loop them around the shown attachment points [1.]. Take the white lines named
FDS-A1, FDS-B1 and FDS-C1 and connect them to the following attachment points and loop the
other side of all three lines around one end of the 21m FDS-Line [white].
After changing the ring you have to reconnect the front lines to the end of the depower leader line.
How to connect the front lines correctly to the
end of the depower leader line.
