6. TUNING YOUR KITE
Advanced Tuning
The following is a general guide for what your kite will do at certain knot
positions. Do not hesitate to try several different combinations to find
what suits your style best.
Attach the outside flying lines to one of the three knots on the control
bar' s extension lines labeled A, B, or C.
Knot A:
The kite will be somewhat depowered when your arms are
outstretched. Push the bar away from your body for even less power.
The kite will fly at optimum trim while the control bar is close to the
quick release trim loop. You will be ready to unhook at any moment for
power moves.
Knot B:
The kite will be fully powered when the bar is a few inches
from the quick release trim loop. This position will allow you to be fully
powered when your arms are in a more extended and comfortable
position. This setup retains a good amount of depower room above the
bar, and puts you in a more ergonomic body posture.
Knot C:
This position allows you to ride with the kite fully powered when
your arms are outstretched. This setup is great for one-handed jumps.
Pulling the bar down to the center loop will oversheet the kite.
Caution:
This setting does not allow the rider much room to depower
the kite, compromising the ability to sheet out completely. Only ad-
vanced kiteboarders should use this setup.
Front Line Attachment:
Your new Naish Kite (Cult/Helix/Charger) will come with the Standard
Leash attached to one of the grey front lines, and the other line will be
attached to the stainless 4 ring piece. In the case that you want to use
the trim line as your leash you will need to remove the Standard Leash
and re-attach the grey front line to the stainless 4 ring piece. Pull the
present Standard Leash back through the bar so that the grey front
line comes down all the way through the bar and retainer ring on the
chicken loop. Un-attach the leash and pull the grey line back up to the
stainless 4 ring piece and attach identically as the non leashed grey
front line
(See Pic 3 & 4).
