* All modes begin with the bar in the middle to lower half of chicken loop line
with the rider hooked into chicken loop.
** Refer to the performance characteristics on page 15.
Mode 1 - Oneline is trimmed in (Oneline engaged approximately 2-8 inches de-
pending on kite size and wind range). The depower line is all the way out (depower
disengaged). The bar is in the middle to lower half of chicken loop line.
Advantage: Additional low end power by opening canopy shape for increased
projected area. Kite flies further in the edge of the wind window, increasing upwind
performance.
Mode 2 - Oneline is trimmed in (Oneline engaged approximately 2-8 inches
depending on kite size and wind range). The depower line is all the way out (de-
power disengaged). The bar sheeted either all the way in or all the way out
Advantage: Bar sheeted in- More low end power than in mode 1 once up to
speed.Bar sheeted out- Better upwind performance than in mode 1 once up to
speed.
