through heavy loads, general wear and tear on lines combined with
water, salt, sand and sun your speed system lines may stretch or
shrink. to keep your speed system at the factory trim setting use the
simple adjustment system.

step-by-step instRuCtiOns. RefeR tO the pRO-tune speeD
system DiagRam anD phOtOs (1-6)
1:
Align the Speed System lower ends – these are lines PA1
(connected to pigtails 2 or 3) and PB1 (running through the lower
pulley connecting to pigtails 1/2 or 3/4).
2:
Ask a friend to hold the line attachment pigtails keeping the
Speed System lower ends even, or use the Ground Stake (or a
screw driver) through the lower ends as shown.
3:
secure the speed system ends, double check they are even.
4:
Apply even tension to the upper ends: PA2, PB3, PC1 (where the
bridle lines attach to the speed system).
5:
Use A as the base measurement. Measure the position of B and
C relative to A.
6:
if A/B/C are even there is no adjustment required. Measurement
differences around 10mm we highly recommend adjusting the
speed system back to even trim.
7:
Measurement differences of 15mm or more you must adjust the
speed system back to even trim or the kite will not perform as
designed.
8:
Adjusting B: Move the PC1 LOWER KNOT (figure-of-eight knot,
where the PB2 line is larks headed below) UP or DOWN. This
will move the PB2 line connection point. B will get LONGER or
sHoRteR by half of the length you move the knot - for example if
B is 10mm shorter than A, move the PB2 knot up 20mm.
9:
Adjusting C: Move the PC1 UPPER KNOT, UP or DoWn. this
will make the loop that the C bridles are looped into BIGGER or
sMALLeR. C will move half the distance of what you move the
knot - for example if C is 10mm shorter than A, move the PC1
knot up 20mm. Make sure to loosen and re-set the C bridle lines
in the end loop after moving the knot.
10:
If you adjust the C, you must also adjust the PB1 knot (where
the KR1 line is larks headed below) by the same amount C has
moved. For example if C is 10mm shorter than A, first move PC1
knot up 20mm, and then move KR1 knot up 10mm.
11:
if the difference between A to B and/or A to C is more than
40mm, your Speed System lines have shrunk or stretched
drastically and/or might be damaged. Make sure you check
every single speed system line to their specs and if necessary
replace them.
