OVERPOWERED

After letting go of your bar:
In the event you let go of your bar, the
Oneline will immediately kill all power to
the kite. To retrieve the bar, use a hand
over hand technique to pull yourself
to the bar. Grab the chicken loop and
make sure the Oneline is cleated in the
Oneline trim cleat with three or more
feet of Oneline cleated off to prevent
unwanted relaunch. Now you can hook
back into the chicken loop and prepare
to relaunch. (See Oneline Relaunch
instructions on page15)
If you become overpowered and start to get pulled off your board edge, you can
grab the Oneline handle and pull until almost all of the power is spilled from the
kite. Now, reset your edge, cut upwind, lean back and slowly let the Oneline out
until you have regained control.
Warning- When using this technique, know the difference between getting pulled
off your edge and flying too big of a kite in high winds. If you are consistently
overpowered, use a smaller kite or end your session.
