Step 3: The Pig Tail

1. Cut two lengths of bridle line, 250 mm long. Make a knot at 5 mm from each of the two ends of each line. Melt the excessive parts with the flame of a lighter (or a candle). Tap the molten end onto a hard object to flatten the end against the knot.

2. Fold the lines in the centre and make a flat knot with both ends at the same time. Make sure both Pig tails are exact the same length!

3. Connect the Pig Tails you just made with the turbo points on both sides of the kite by using a Prussic knot. This is a knot that can be 'locked' once you've pulled it tight.
