TUNNING UP YOUR KITE
Power management principles:
You should never sail with your arms fully extended, as you would have no further depowe-
ring ability in a gust. In this scenario you should shortening your front lines reduces the po-
wer generated by your kite. You can:
Pull down on the red strap of the power adjuster for ideal setting and reengage the
line in the cleat.
On land, select a knot on the front leader line closer to your bar, (knot 2 or 3).
To increase the power generated by your kite you should shortening the back lines.You
can:
Release (with the power adjuster) some line for ideal setting and reengage the line in
the cleat.
On land, select a knot on the front leader line further from your bar, (knot1).
Caution: these tuning techniques have limits – excessively shortening your centre lines will
render your kite hard to steer, and over-shortening your outer lines will overpower your kite
and ultimately make
it fly backwards.
