Tip:
Instead of launching di-
rectly in the power zone, you
can also launch the kite with
the same technique in the
soft zone. Position the kite
at 45° to the wind instead of
90° to the wind to substan-
tially reduce the power.
03.02 Edge of the wind window
with an assistant
It is important that your assistant is
experienced with this technique and
you have explained them how it‘s done.
Position the kite and assistant
exactly on the edge of the window.
The helper begins from the cen-
tre of the kite and holds multiple air
intakes into the wind. As the kite fills,
the assistant should walk their hands
down the leading edge of the kite
letting the inflated parts of the kite
rise up. The bottom tip should not
be touching the ground anymore.
As soon as the kite is inflated
and you are ready, give the assis-
tant the thumbs up signal that he
can let go. Make sure to once again
check whether all lines run freely.
If the kite is threatening to collapse
over the assistant, you can either walk
downwind, or the assistant upwind.
