The
Kangaroo 3
lines consist of a beige Technora Core of high resistance to
tension and has low distortion rate, covered by a layer of colored polyester.
The set is made of individual lines, with sewn ties on both extremities.

Resistance of the lines (new):
1,0 mm Cousin Vectran > 100 kg
1,2 mm Cousin Vectran > 150 kg
1,4 mm Cousin Vectran > 200 kg
1,5 mm Cousin Superaram > 150 Kg
2,1 mm Cousin Superaram > 260 Kg
2,5 mm Cousin Superaram > 360 kg
The main inferior lines and the main line of the brakes are 1,5 mm, 2,1 mm
and 2.5 mm diameter.
The inetrmeadiate and superior lines are Vectran with a resistance up to
40% higher than the regular lines, making a set of light lines, thin and with
high durability.
Diameter 1,0 - 1,2 and 1,4 mm.

The upper lines distinguish themselves (next to the inside layer) and the
main lines, which are connected to the Quick Links. These, in turn connect
to the main lines on the risers. The stabilizers' lines are connected to the
same Quick Links.
The brake lines come out of the trailing edge, through the master line and
are linked to the toggles, passing through a pulley attached to the 'D' riser.
Lines 'A' and the brake lines are of different color in order to facilitate
takeoff preparation. The Quick Links are triangular shaped and are made
of inox stainless steel.
On the brakes' master lines, there is a mark at the ideal setting point, at
which height the toggles are affixed. This setting should not be altered as
it ensures adequate and sufficient path and room for the toggles in case of
emergency situations during flight and landing. Further more, in this
position the paraglider is not constantly on a stall.
Warning:
In the event of one or more brake lines get stuck during flight, or if a
toggle is lost due to a line brake, the canopy can still be flown by
applying gentle pulling of the D risers, therefore controlling directional
changes.

The pilot is connected behind the passenger on the shorter end of the
tandem connection thus reaching easier the control handles and risers. In
case of a big weight diference between pilot and passenger, the tandem
connection offers various points to fix the passenger always maintaining
the ideal position of balance.
