INTRODUCTION
With the purchase of this Kite you bought yourself a high quality, environmental friendly
piece of sports equipment. We are sure you will enjoy it while being out on the water, land
or snow!
Using a kite, privately or professional, holds certain dangers. These dangers may occur by
using the kite yourself or due to an error at the kite, the lines or the bar. The following in-
structions should help you reduce these dangers to a minimum in order to enjoy the beau-
ty of kiteboarding.
With these instructions we assume that the reader is at least basically skilled in controlling
a kite! Furthermore we assume, that while kiting the user:
1. is always able to control the kite with two hands
2. uses an appropriate kite harness
3. is able to swim and his health conditions allow for doing this sport
This manual is no guide to learn kiting! Please read through the whole manual before using
the kite for the first time.
WARNING!
Launching and flying a kite can be potentially dangerous if you ignore the basic safety guide-
lines. When operating a kite, the utmost attention is required. Incorrect handling or misuse
of a kite may cause serious injuries and/or death. When operating a kite, you are respon-
sible for your own safety and that of others around you. A kite can be dangerous as long as
it remains attached to the kiter!
Never hesitate to use the Safety-System, and if necessary, open the Safety Leash. The
most important thing to remember when kiting is to remain concentrated and learn to re-
cognize and avoid errors before they occur. Don’t overestimate your own abilities and stu-
dy the kiting site before you go on the water! Never use a kite prior to professional instruc-
tion by a certified kite surfing school. For tube-kiters, a proper introduction into the Flysur-
fer-System is essential and please read the manual thoroughly.
