Looks like it rigs on both front and rear on one side of the kite. Either way - how does it connect?

you put your front lines through the end tubes and with the help of some stopper balls you secure it about 3m above you, but the height is really
trial and error depending on the size of the rig and what kite you are flying on.
this rig is 60cm long and 16cm wide.
you dont want to alter the "v" shape of the front lines so just move the rig up and down until you find the optimum height. as the atc 2k has no zoom
i found the best framing was about 3m above you.
you use the front lines as they are the ones under constant tension which keeps the rig really steady.
hope this helps
