Ounce for ounce, the 3-D is the most versatile 
little kite we've ever made. Small enough to fly 
almost anywhere, and light enough to fly easily indoors, 
it'll get you flying in places you never before thought possible. 

Once they've mastered basic flying, most people find that 
flying in light winds is more fun. Because the kite moves 
slowly, you have more control and can do a much wider 
variety of tricks. If you've got access to a gym or other 
indoor space, try flying your 3-D indoors on very short lines 
(<15'). It's easy to learn, and you'll discover a magical 
dance in which kite and pilot are equal partners in a 
whole new repertoire of maneuvers.
 
Read this field card carefully to be sure you assemble 
and adjust your new 3-D correctly before flying. For 

loads of information on all aspects of sport kiting, 
from kite tuning to the latest tricks, check out

Safety

Remember, flying safely is your responsibility.

DO NOT FLY NEAR:

Once you can keep the kite in the air comfortably in moderate winds, learn to 

tune your bridle for different wind conditions. This takes only a few seconds to 

do, and it will let you fly your kite easier in a much wider wind range. Find 

complete tuning information in the "Flight Training" section of the Prism CDROM 

or on the Prism website at

First Flight

Left turn

Right turn

Unwind your lines and check that the flying line in your right hand is connected to 

the right-hand bridle with the kite pointed up. If not, switch hands. Some people 

color code their line ends with a magic marker to make this check easy.

Clear your flying area. Make sure there are no people in your flying space.

A sharp, sweeping pull on both lines will launch your kite. Keep your arms by your 

side and your hands low at all times for best control.

Attach your flying lines to the two 

pigtails on your bridle using a Lark's 

Head knot as shown.
