vegas 08 manual

Tips: Never swim towards the kite at any time during re-launch. This may cause
the kite to flip inside out!

CAUTION: MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE NOT CAUGHT IN ANY LINES BEFORE
RELAUNCHING YOUR KITE!

Self Rescue

Self Rescue Drag Handles are attached to the inner side of the wingtips and are
helpful when self-rescuing in side or on-shore wind conditions. These handless
facilitate holding the kite to body-drag back to the beach. If using the self-rescue
handles is not possible you must swim with the kite. Swimming with the kite
is easiest when you turn the kite around, the way you carry the canopy on the
beach. Never (!) deflate the bladder while you are in the water since it can
provide flotation and is clearly visible from the air.

Packing The VEGAS

Open the dump valve on the wingtip of the leading edge and all strut dump

valves. If you intend to return to the water you can leave the struts inflated.
Begin rolling the kite from the wingtip opposite to the dump valve. Make sure to
roll the kite up with the struts on top, expelling all the air from the leading edge
as you roll. When you reach the end fold the kite in half and put it in the bag.
If you keep the struts inflated, you can use the bag extension and stow the kite
without folding it.
