Hi
Ng
Release the kite from the sand or object securing it with a
step backwards away from the kite and carefully steer it.
Tip:
You can prevent the lines getting caught around the bot-
tom wingtip by folding over the tip once more and securing the
second fold with e.g. sand.
05.02 Edge of the wind window with an assistant
It is important that your assistant is experienced with this tech-
nique and you have explained them how it‘s done.
Position kite and assistant exactly on the edge of the window.
The assistant begins from the center of the kite with the
leading edge (LE) into the wind. As the kite shapes its form, the
assistant slowly works his hands down the leading edge until
the kite is fully opened and lets the kite rise up. The bottom tip
should not be touching the ground anymore.
05 LAUNCHiNg
Please check not only the wind and weather conditions, but also
all your equipment, especially the safety system before launching.
Do not use any kite outside of its recommended upper wind range.
When launching in strong winds, we recommend that you have an
assistant holding you from the back of your harness. During laun-
ching, always pay attention that your brilde lines do not get caught
on anything or become tangled.
05.01 Self launching at the edge of the wind
window
Lay the kite out 90° to the wind. Fold over the windward
wingtip and secure it near the leading edge.
The kite should be positioned 15-30° downwind of you when
you slowly tension the lines for launch.
Pay attention that the downwind wingtip does not fold over
upwind.
