Setup Bar and flying lines
The new Core SENSOR BAR is ready
for plug & play. Just unwind your lines,
attach them to the kite and have fun! The
following instructions and the picture on
the left should give you a quick overview
how to setup your new kite and bar.
PREFLIGHT CHECKLIST
1. Make sure your launch is open, FREE OF
DOWNWIND BYSTANDERS, hard objects, nearby
power lines, buildings and walls, within at least
200 ft. (60 m), and preferably more. Some riders
have needed in excess of 500 ft. (170 m), to re-
gain control in violent dragging or loftings. Avoid
kiteboarding near airports and in low flight path
areas, complaints have led to restricted access
in some areas.
2. Check to see what size kite other kiteboarders
are rigging and get their input on conditions. Do
not rig too large a kite for conditions and careful-
ly consider advice of more experienced riders.
Failure to act on prudent advice has cost some
riders severe injury.
3. Check your kite for tears or leaky bladders. If
you have leaky bladders or tears in your kite,
repair them before flying.
4. Check ALL kite, harness, control bar lines,
webbing, pigtails, bridles, the chicken loop and
leaders for knots, wear or abrasions. If the line
sheathing shows any breaks, replace them. The
pigtails should be replaced no less frequently
than every 6 months on inflatable kites. Inspect
and test all your quick releases.
5. Make sure your flying lines are equal as they
will stretch unevenly with use. If they have knots
that can´t be easily untied, replace your flight
lines.
6. Walk down your lines and examine them care-
fully. Just before launch pick your bar up and
carefully look down the lines for twists and
tangles that could cause the kite to be dange-
rously uncontrollable. While you are holding
your bar up look down the lines, shake your bar
to make sure the center lines are connected to
the leading edge of the kite. Be particularly care-
ful, slow and methodical in high winds. Multiple,
careful preflighting in higher winds is strongly
advised.
Inflate the kite to 6-7 psi and close the Fast-
Pump-Clamps properly.
To depower the kite with the adjuster , always
keep a little tension on the backlines.
Before starting the kite you should allways
check all bar safety systems and feel comfortab-
le with all features on the bar.
Double-check the weather conditions and if
you´re in doubt, don´t go out!
Have fun and enjoy your safe ride!
