Blade 2013 LADY FAT, User Manual

ChICKen loop

sWIvel

All Blade Chicken Loops come from the factory in one standard size. For those 
riders who enjoy frequent unhooked riding, Blade offers a bigger chicken loop 
that can be easily installed (see Repairs). 

Do take into account this will cause the bar to be situated further from the rider 
and is not compatible with the donkey dick.

The swivel needs to be rinsed in fresh water after each session. For best results, 
soak the swivel with water before each use.

The position of the depower cleat can be adjusted
to add or decrease the bar throw. 
This can be easily adjusted on the beach within seconds:

• Loosen the bar throw adjustment tab.
• Pull the depower line so that the cleat is positioned at the desired position.
• To even out the lines coming out of the QR, pull the shorter one of the two until they 

   are even. 

The KITe leash

The kite leash should be connected to secure the kite to the rider. This leash secures 

the kite to the rider when the chicken loop is unhooked as well as when the Slider QR 

System is activated. 
To attach, simply connect kite leash clip to safety ring. Once the Chicken Loop is 
disconnected from the rider for any reason, the kite leash will pull on one of the front 
flying lines, causing the kite to lose power and fall to the water.
