Setting up and connecting the lines
Laying out the Foil
Lay the Traction Quad on the ground so
that the bridle lines are at the top and the
inlet openings are facing away from the
wind. To secure the foil, place some sand,
smooth stones or filled sacks on the trailing
edge. Lay out the main bridle and braking
bridle lines without letting them twist in
the wind.
The fly lines provided are already connected
when delivered so that the BEAMER can
become airborne as quickly as possible.
Still, when laying out the lines, allow
sufficient time. Wind the line up and move
toward the wind away from the kite.
Important! Always ensure that there is a clear path for the quad-liner (see figure on previous page).
The lines are stored on separate winders. To prevent twists in the lines, wind them up in figure
eights. Another option is to simply use the 4-line handles to wind up the lines without disconnecting
the lines from the bars and the foil. To do this, hold the pair of handles in one hand and wind the
four fly lines together around the other end of the handles, always moving in the same direction.
When unwinding, hold the bars at the end with one hand without touching the lines and unwind
the lines so they are laid out in a single specified direction. To prevent twists in the lines, wind
tightly and unwind in the opposite direction.
