Hi guys, i am matnic and i have something to ask about a trasformation of owl kites.
I know that these kites are not so popular but i need to ask you if someone know the procedure to convert these kites to four lines with depower.
I need something like a technical scheme and a jpg scheme with measures of lines and all i need to convert.
Thanks

hi mat,
nice to meet you here :wink:

can you tell me again what you mean by 4 line AND depower?

i have some pictures and maybe .pdf's of bridles.
i've only used the owl as a 4-kine kite with handles - but the guy who broucht it, told that is originally in 3line-setup?


greetings,

When you buy a owl kite they give you the kite with 2lines+third line system.
The third line is a security line which you use when you leave the bar and the kite land down.
But someone tell me that ther is a different possible setu for this kite.
He told me that you can convert it to a 4 line kite with a depower system that works like a naish/wipika depower.
Please help me to understand...
