I moved the sleeve from the detached peace of line onto the main line end. My sleeve loop became detached from a line. However with 25 mph it snapped where the nut was. (I must have stretched one line more then the other?). A year or so later, when I took out my Jazz, to my surprise, one line was 10 inch longer than the other one. What happened is that after I ought a Prism Jazz, I flew it a couple of times and put a way. The reason for Prism line breakage was a nut. You may even discover solutions that you can share with the rest of us! All kiters always help each other with practical options. I prefer to use whatever is the fastest in the field and dependable. Your best choice is to try a few things others suggest and use the one that works for you. These are what I do, but if you ask others you will get different solutions. To adjust and equalize lines I simply tie another knot, or more, in the loop on the line(s) that are longer. I have no problems with breakage or "creep" (slipping) even in spectra line. I don't replace the sleeving if it wears out on ready-made lines, and never sleeve the lines that I make. These will reduce the breaking strength of the line by 15 to 20 percent, depending on how neatly you tie them, but the figure8 knots almost entirely reduce line slippage. You can tie loops in the ends of your spectra line by using two figure-of-eight knots. If you learn other knots used by fishermen, you will find many useful for kite flying as well as other applications. If the line breaks somewhere in the middle, it can be tied together using a fisherman's "blood knot" - Google it - the other line will have to be shortened to the new length of the line that broke. If you have many days of 25+ mph wind, then 150# line should be the line to fly. Read the makers' recommendations and make your choice based on your local wind conditions.Īll the dual-line stunt deltas I have had were flown on 90# line or less, sometimes in wind gusting to 35 mph with only one line breakage. If you ask 12 people which is best you will get 10 or more different answers. Anything that is described as UL or SUL (Ultra Light or Super Ultra Light) is in that wind range.
