4. KITE PRESENTATION
4.1 Kite setup

Securing your kite on land:
Layout your kite with bridles system facing up and trailing edge facing into the wind. If you 
are in any wind at all put some snow, sand or weight on the trailing edge and let the kite 
lay out down wind away from the weight. You can also lay the kite on the side and put 
weight on the wingtip. Just make sure you secure your kite.

Separate the bridle system:
Be sure that there are no tangles in the bridle system. (Always start to separate the 
bridle link to the leading edge first, then the bridle link to the pulley and finally the back 
bridle. ) Lay the bridles system on the ground with the front connection inside and back 
connection outside.
