Pigtails on front and back flying lines should all be the same length (20cm). These will stay
attached to your flying lines with a loop to loop connection. When connecting the pigtails to
the kite use a larks head knot.
Note:
In 2018 we have changed the bridles on our kites so that the front attachments have loops
and the back attachments have knots. This has been done so that our kites will match the
industry standard.

ATTACHING THE FLYING LINES
1. Before you attach your lines, have your kite pumped up leading edge down and weighted
with sand or gravel.
2. Your SLE kite has two front line attachments, supported by line bridles and two back line
attachments located at the very tip of the leading edge tube.
3. With the front attachment points free from their Velcro storage tabs, pull the connectors
forward so that the bridles are in clear view. Make sure the bridles are free and clear with
no twists and any pulleys are free and clear of debris.
4. Attach your flying lines to the kite using a larks head connection.
Note:
If you are using an Ocean Rodeo control bar from 2017 or older; extra bridle adapters are
required in order to make the connections. These adapters can be purchased from a dealer
or directly from Ocean Rodeo.
Important!
Its is absolutely crucial that the bar you are using utilizes a single front line
flag out system.
