I agree that rigging upwind is not safe, but on a crowded beach if everyone is rigging upwind I feel that I have to rig upwind too, so I don't mess up the traffic flow. I like how you attach your front lines first and then unroll the bar, I will try it next time. I usually walk my lines and then attach them. I think one of the reasons people rigging upwind is that it makes to walk lines downwind in stronger winds.

Hi, Thanks for watching and I hope this helps you. When you attach your front lines first walking back through them is easy, just keeping the front lines between your legs and holding onto the rear lines, one in each hand. Rigging downwind when everyone at your local rigs upwind should not cause any issues.

Try connecting the fronts first, makes walking back to the kite much easier, but also means there is very little chance of connecting lines incorrectly.

Great video, same as all your others. You mention you switch the rigging number 2 & 3 so your flag out line is always on top. Am I right in saying you could always land it with the flag out on top regardless of rig by turning the other way - IE, you’d face the water as opposed to the land when self landing it on the beach? Thanks

Yes Mike if your beach area is wide enough you can just hook the lines up in numerical order regardless of wind direction.
