Planning Your Launch

• Choose an area where you have at least 100 meters of space to your left and right and especially downwind of you.
• Set up your equipment so that your kite is downwind of where you will be launching, but most importantly, so that it is at

an angle off of the wind.

• DO NOT SET UP YOUR KITE FOR A STRAIGHT DOWNWIND LAUNCH! The kite will launch with too much power and you

will endanger the lives of yourself and those around you if you launch in this manner.

• Basically, if the wind is at your back, and straight downwind is at a 180°, then you will want to set your kite at about a

100° off the wind, either to the left or to the right of you.

• The more the kite is positioned into the wind when you launch, the less power it will have when it goes up, and the easier

your launch will be.

• Your partner will stand with the kite while you will stand 30 meters away at your control bar.
• Make sure you launch slowly, and launch the kite at an angle, NOT STRAIGHT DOWNWIND!
