Attach your kite leash to one single line.
Let the kite flag out completely on one line.
Move hand over hand up the single line until you reach the bar.
Wrap the single line around the bar end several times to lock it off.
Begin wrapping all of your lines around the ends of the bar.
Makeg sure that only the original line is tensioned.
Lock off all four lines.
Grab a hold of the kite and move towards the center of the leading edge.
Attach your bar's chicken loop to the Velcro of one of the main valves to secure it.
Decide whether you can use the kite to sail you back to land.
The farther you kite is from shore the longer the swim back in will be.
