Speedsystem Addon
If you want to add the speed system to your BOOM Vector, please follow these steps.
The whole process takes about 1/2 to 1 hour.
1. Lay out the kite and the parts from the SpeedSys addon. The left line is the brake/safety
line, the right line is the right flying line.

2. The two long lines build the "T" line, that connects the two B line pulleys. They are looped
into each other.

3. The short thin line is looped in the "T" line like that:

4. The brake line joint is replaced by the fat short line.

6. The "T" - line is in front of the brake line - connect the brake extension line and the "T" line
using a black line joint.

8. Take all A lines except the outmost and ...

... loop them on the black speed-line above the stopper - like seen below.

9. The "T" line, the B - lines and the outmost A line are looped on the short pulley - line.

Do it this way: first the T line, then the B lines, finally the A lines.

... until it looks like that.

11. Take the C lines and the wingtip line ...

12. Put the pulley in the speed system (The T line is behind the A lines) ...

... and connect the two loops using a black line joint.

14. Now it's time for the "Y" lines - loop one of them into the left system ...

... the other one into the right system and you end up like that:

We take the pulley ..

sleeved)

16. Connect the left side ...

17. Here comes the bar - setup. We see an old version of the mono harness line and the
ancient safety-system.

21. Do not forget to adjust the length of the safety leader line and put the leader line and the
neoprene back on the bar. All leader lines have the same lengths.

22. Here we attach the speed adjustment strap:

24. Knot it there ...

this knot works well, although it's not the original bowline knot. (Flo always makes the knot
that way...)

25. OK! Ready!
