  • Page 2 Kite profiles, individually adapted to the respec- tive wind speed, are making each kite size unique and specifically designed for its range. Prima Donna is offered in a complete size range, which makes it easier for all disciplines, genders and weight of riders to tailor their perfect quiver.
  • Page 3 3. kITe SeTuP a. Set up and pack your JN kite Don’t try to use your JN kite with different bars than the JN bar. Set up: Unwrap your kite, plan it to the ground and pin it down by some object which doesn’t harm the kite such as a sand bag. Next, attach the pump leash to the pump leash loop in the middle of the kite and start pumping it up by using the inflate valve.
  • Page 4 Tuning and readjusting Wild Thing Revival & Prima Donna 5th line adjustment: To gain ideal performance of your 5-line Prima Donna your 5th line tension is essential. If the 5th line’s tension is too high it reduces the kites low wind performance, the lift, the hangtime and the general flying behaviour. After months of use the frontlines get stretched a little because they take most parts of the load.
  • Page 5 5-line relaunch Prima Donna/Wild Thing: After dropping, the kite generally floats on the leading edge. Make sure you are perfectly hooked into your harness. Simply pull the 5th line until the profile tilts backwards. Don’t pull too much, so the full canopy doesn’t touch the water. This would hinder a fast and easy relaunch.
  • Page 6 b.1) 4-line relaunch Simply wait until the kite is lying on the leading edge in the very middle of the wind window. Make sure you are perfectly hooked into your harness. Pull the trim adjuster cleat all the way in, and push away the bar for maximum of depower. Then grab either left or right backline handle and pull. The stronger the wind, the faster the kite’s tip will rise out of the water, therefore pull harder on the backline-handle in light winds and more gently in strong winds.
  • Page 7 Mode conversion: 5-line mode The Master‘s Craft ships in 5-line mode. All lines are installed with the 24m version ready to fly. The 5th line mode is essential for Prima Donna, but can be used also for Wild Thing and Mister Fantastic, all JN Kites are supplied complete with nose lines or already installed, and ready to fly. After activating the safety, the guide ring is used in the safety line #6 at the same time as stopper ring and limits the activation distance, this prevents that the line wrap- ped around the kite.
