Unique System 5th Line Release

Our main feature this year is a 5th line safety line directly connected to the speed system 
at lower level. This system is totally new to the market and bring a new benchmark in 
safety sytem for foil.
After releasing the kite will fold in half horizontaly and fall to the ground in a good posisiton 
to launch again. Hold the safety line, re-activate the quick release, let go the safety line 
and launch your kite.

NOTE:
Due to many external factors and the inherent dangers of snowkiting or landkiting, do 
not rely on this release system to activate under all conditions. Kite within your 
limitations and stay far away from dangerous obstacles.
It’s better to check twice and act once!! If things are connected wrong the kite can 
respond improperly when launched which can be very dangerous.

3.2 Release System

Your IKON release system, is easy and safety. You have just to pull the red collar when 
you are in a dangerous situation. When you use your IKON kite, for the first time, try the 
release system. It's important, to feel it, and to know how it works, to use it rapidly when 
it’s needed. Lastly, be careful to your release system, it have to be correctly closed before 
each time you launch your kite. Moreover, take time to clean it with clear water after 
each session, and ensure there is no sand or salt water could block the release.
