Bumfish Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 Just picked up 2 Flying Wings Souls and I for the life of me can not figure out how to tension the wings. There are 2 holes in kite, inline with leading edge. Tension line has a overhand loop tied into it with a 8 inch tail. Directions that came with kite are not understandable at best. Pictures are really small and directions are as follow: Insert the wing tip tension line through the loop near to the webbing, pull tension line all the way down and through the groove of the nock at the tip. Cover with soft endcap. WHAT!! Can you help me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bumfish Posted June 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 In both pics, the end with loop seems to go through the first hole from the picture side. What does it attach to on the reverse side? Top pic - lines from knot run into the first hole, and got where on the back side? Bottom pic - lines from knot run into the first hole, and where on the back side? Top pic - line from loop seems to go up to nook and then to hole #2. Where does it go from there? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bumfish Posted June 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 There are no loops of ribbon on end of sail to loop line through. There are 2 holes in the sail parallel to the leading edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hadge Posted June 10, 2016 Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 Ok, first push the loop end of the tensioner through the lower hole Take the other end, loop it around the nock and back up the other side take it through the lower hole loop and up to the top hole thread it through the top hole ( from the back to the front) and pull it down tight back through the nock where the knot in the tensioner should hold it tight. I'll try and put a picture up later if you have trouble. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
