STEERING

1. Take the handles as high as possible.
2. To steer up the kite: push up the bottom of both handles.
3. To turn the kite: to the right = push up the bottom of the left handle,
to turn the kite to the left = push up the bottom of the right handle.
4. To stop / to brake: press the bottom of both handles to your body.

READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE START

1. You have 2 pairs of flying lines.
One pair brake-lines with lowest traction force and one pair steering lines with
highest traction force = thickest line.
2. Tip: use always ‘black’ at left side. Attach the black line at the left side of the kite onto the black handle.
3. Check if all 4 lines have equal length. This is very important
4. Never leave your GOLD-WING wet in its bag. Dry the kite as soon as possible.
5. Only when you know the basic techniques, the use of a harness is justified.
6. If your kite crashed, check if there are no tears, to avoid further damage.
7. Adapt the strength of your lines to wind force
8. Do not fly with more than 6 BFT. Respect the safety and security norms.

TO CONNECT THE FLYING LINES

1. Open the sail having the wind behind you and lie it flat with bridles lines on top. Watch out that the kite does not take off on his own. Put some sand or earth on the bottom of the kite. There are 4 bridle-clusters: 2 on top (= to fly) and 2 at the bottom (= to brake).
2. Prepare your flying lines and check if they are of equal length.
3. Attach the brake-lines at the lowest clusters. The brake-lines are the lines with fewest traction. The lowest clusters are those with knots on. To start attach the brake-lines after the 1st (maximum 2nd) knot from the kite away. Both brake-lines have to be attached after the same knot at both sides.
4. Attach the steering lines (the lines with strongest traction force) at the upper clusters.
5. Take one handle and attach the upper cord of the handle with the loop of the steering line onto the farthest knot.
6. Attach the lower cord of the handle with the loop of the braking line, also onto the farthest knot. The upper side of the handle is the part with the foam
7. Take the other handle and do the same.

REMARK ABOUT THE BREAKING LINES

On the bridle-lines there are different knots, their function is to
brake more (one knot closer to the kite) or less (one knot further of the kite).
The same system is foreseen with the knots onto the lines of the handles. At the upper side of the handle: how closer the knot to the handle, how less the brake.
At the underside of the handle: how closer the knot to the handle how more the brake is.
This is your choice.
