All line to kite connections are made using the larks-head knot. The diagrams below show you how to make one in the loops at the ends of your flying lines.
Connect the lines to your control gear before attaching the lines to your kite.
Larks-head knots can pull very tight during use. However, by pulling on the tag, they will come undone easily.
