PUSH AWAY SAFETY
Slingshot’s 2018 Compstick Guardian (below the bar) control bar comes
with a push-away safety release system. This system is simple, reliable and
highly effective. When used properly, activating the safety release will allow
your kite to depower completely as it flags-out on the safety line attached
to your kite leash.
1. To activate the safety release, simply grab the red handle on the
release mechanism just above the chicken loop assembly and push it
away from your harness. This will unhook the chicken loop and allow
kite to flag-out and safely depower.
2. To reset after deploying the release, follow your safety leash and the
safety line until you reach your bar, making sure not to get tangled in
your lines in the process. Once at your bar, reassemble the safety by
pulling up on the red release mechanism, threading the release pin
through the metal loop at the end of your chicken loop and sliding the
release handle down over the pin.
3. To relaunch, feed your center line through the bar until all four lines
are taut, then launch as usual.
