Attaching Lines
Always lay out the flyinglines from
the foil opposite to the wind.
Use lark’s head knots to secure the
lines to the foil bridle and the handles
(see drawing), which form loops on
the ends of each flyingline. Pull the
lark’s head knots tight on the bridle
or handle line and stop the knots at
the connection points.
When hooking up the lines, ensure
that the flyinglines are correctly
secured to the bridle and the handles

and make absolutely certain that the left and right side and the
power lines (thicker) and brake lines (thinner) have not been
switched.
A knot leader allows for the foil to be adjusted at different
connection points on the braking bridle. The bridle is adjusted
such that the third knot ensures for good control via the brake
if the flyinglines are the same length (see figure on page 16).
Once the foil is set up and the lines are connected, secure it to
the ground stake. To do this, wind the brake line around the
ground stake direct on the handles so that the foil remains flat
on the ground while braked. Alternatively, you can use the extra
loops on the lower end of some 4-line handles.
