FRONTLINE OPERATION - RELAUNCHING WITH THE FRONTLINE SYSTEM
Relaunching with The Frontline System
The same features that de-power the kite also assist in quicker
relaunching. When the kite is leading edge down on the
water, it can be rolled into a side launch position by following
these steps:
1. The Frontline recovery line is also your relaunch assist
line
2. Reach up the recovery leader lines and pull the line to-
ward your body. You may need to pull a couple of meters
of line to get the kite to trip. CAUTION: Make sure not to
wrap the leader line around your hand or to allow your
body to get entangled in it. (Fig.1)
3. The kite will “trip”, roll on to it’s back and move onto one
wing tip
4. Once on its side, the kite will begin to move toward the
edge of the wind window. You may have to finesse the
kite to the edge of the window; to do this, continue to
hold onto the same leader line until the kite wants to
re-launch.
5. When the kite is ready to re-launch, release the leader
line, slowly steer the kite up into the sky, and level out
your bar.
6. Once you begin riding again, tension on your flying lines
will reset the Recovery leader.
