Scheme 1
Push the brake handles
outwards to engage the
brake lines only
Scheme 2
Pull the brake handles
inwards, towards your
body to engage the TST
lines
Scheme 3
Pulling straight down
engages both the brakes
and TST lines

Pushing the handle away from your body engages the brakes in the middle of the trailing
edge (Scheme 1), whilst pulling the hand close towards your body will engage the wing tips
(Scheme 2). Pulling the brakes down in the normal manner will engage both the TST and the
brakes (Scheme 3).
To set up the 2D system:
1. Disconnect the TST lines from the mini handles and remove them from the small rings
on the risers.
2. Completely remove the rest of the TST system from the risers - mini handles, magnets
and elastics.
3. Make a figure of eight knot in the TST lines 20cm from the marked position. The knot
stops the Tube Ball handles from sliding too far up the TST lines.
4. Pass the Tube Ball handles through the free ends of the TST lines.
5. Reattach the TST lines with a bowline knot directly to the brake handle at the marked
position.
IMPORTANT
When accelerated
directional control
should be maintained
with the TST system or
the Tube Ball handle
(if the 2D system is
installed). Do NOT use
the brakes.
