KITE SETUP
ATTACHING THE ONELINE BAR AND LINES TO KITE
1. Pump up your kite and lay out the bar and
lines upwind of the kite with leading edge facing
you.
2. Lay out the Oneline kite pigtail behind the kite
(laying away from your bar).
3. Walk out and separate your lines twice
to assure there are no crossed lines. First,
separate your outside steering lines from the
Oneline and the flying lines. Lay your steering
lines to the outside. Then walk out and separate
your flying lines from the Oneline. Lay out your
Oneline in the center and lay out your flying lines
in between the Oneline and the steering lines.

4. Lay your kite on top of the lines with the leading edge facing the bar, 1 meter
from the end of the lines. Place sand on leading edge of kite to secure it.
5. Attach outside steering lines to the trailing edge pigtails using a larks head
knot.
6. Attach flying lines to leading edge pigtails using a lark’s head knot.
7. Attach your Oneline to the last knot at the end of the Oneline kite pigtail from
behind your kite, using a lark’s head knot.
8. Just before launching your kite, have a friend hold your kite in the launch
position at the side of the wind window and do a visual check to make sure the
Oneline is not twisted around your flying or steering lines.
