Ocean Rodeo Sle Kite, Manual

Page: 12 / 28

• Carefully work your way towards kite. If your lines are
severely twisted, work in short segments starting near
the loose end working away from the bar.
• Unwinding lines directly into the wind stops the lines
from twisting together.
• Always remove seaweed from lines as it dries and can
cause tangles.
•
be sure there are no knots in your flying lines as
they create a weak point!
