Beamer TSR on handles
Hi I'm new to power kites, have a 2m / 2 line SpeedFoil. Just purchased a Beamer TSR 3.6m, also purchased Quad Flexifoil Handles. I had no wind today,
but I layed out the kite and attached lines and handles. By following the beginners guide on racekites.com, It seems my brake lines are way long. Is
this because I am using handles instread of the bar? Should the TSR be able to park on a stake? I'm set up on the third knot and don't believe moving
up will help. If the brake lines need to be shortened will I need a different brake lines for the bar, or should the setup for the bar and handles be
about the same. Thanks for any help?

Hi Scotnroa,
You can use bar or handles with the TSR without redoing anything; use the same setting.
I don"t know about Flexi handles but I do know that our HQ handles and especially our brand new Quad Handles Ultra will work fine.
The Ultra handles are the most innovative and comfortable handles available. They just came out. Check out this review:

Thanks, I guess I thought the brake lines would not be so slack, I'll just get it in the air and make sure the kite killers work.
One more thing if you don't mind?
I received no manual just the field card, also I didnt see a downloadable version. Can I be sent an electronic version?
Thanks much
Scott
