5. line setup in doutone dice

[Kehler]

Hi
Why is there a 5. line option the dice when it can be flown without? Is the answer the same as with the ozone AMP?

Thanks MC

Some people think the 5th line safety is ‘better’ than the single front line safety so they give options for both. And it can help with the relaunch. Not really so much about how the kite flies.

No idea what Duotone or Ozone say but imho a 5th line flag requires much shorter flagging length than a front line flag and, therefore, has better re-ride prospects after a release. Possibly this may be seen as better than riding suicide to some people who are chasing freestyle tricks. Also it can be used to get the kite on its back for relaunch particularly useful if the wind goes light, already alluded to by Knotwindy.

If it is a loaded 5th then it needs a longer answer which would have to include how the kite flys etc.

most people using it to feel more safe in case they need to relaunch in light winds,
as much as i can see it s not a loaded one,in fact i think that it flattens and messes a bit the shape of the kite.

Thanks all.
