- After a month of not kiting, we finally got sun and strong wind! I was having an epic session and then out of the blue my chicken loop released for seemingly no reason. Remember to check your safety equipment before you go out each session!!

Some folks release their chicken-loop as they wind the lines or put the bar down at the end of every session, this means that before you start the next one you have to reload it.
I usually clip in, release, then clip in again just to be sure its working, but I didn't do that this time. I hadn't been out in over a month because I had surgery, and it was the first really windy day with some sun :) I'll definitely go back to doing my safety check each time.
Nice! I just had my own little issue self launching…..don’t rush, indeed!
What happened?!
@@erbartlett I was mid process of a tethered launch and got distracted by a loose harness strap. Ended up steering my kite up before I had hooked in! Doh. Luckily super light wind so able to recover without incident.
@@andyrogers2578 lesson learned! best place to do it is light wind!
@@andyrogers2578 yeah, all my mistakes come when I’m not fully paying attention or because I’m excited and moving to fast :)
where did you tie the gopro and how did you do it? very smart
Are you asking about the POV or the linemount footage? I use a mouth mount (gopro brand) and I use a line mount from mentese labs (they seem to have gone out of business). The line mount I put in my lines above the high Y, and the lines just thread through the mount.
@@erbartlett the linemount. - oh ok thank you!
