<p>A multi-tether kite control device uses a winding (7) mechanism to rewind the tether reels (5, 6). The mechanism is activated by a pull-string (8) attached to the belt (13) or torso of the operator. By repetitively moving the device away from and toward his body, the operator can rewind one or both tethers without releasing his grasp upon the device handles. Separate reels are used to coil the tethers attached to the leading edges of the kite to provide a controlled braking action.</p> |
