Multi-line team compulsory figures

Judges will particularly consider

• Spacing
• Speed control
• Position within the precision grid
• Straight lines
• Center rotations

Explanation

• At the end of each downward vertical slide, each kite rotates 90° and slides to the right.
• Kite #1 passes under kites #2, #3, and #4 as it slides to the right.
• Kite #2 passes under kites #3 and #4 as it slides to the right.
• Kite #3 passes under kite #4 as it slides to the right.

Judges will particularly consider

• Circles
• Spacing
• Straight lines
• Relative placement of components
• Inverted slide
• Center rotations

Explanation

The circles are executed with the nose pointed outside the circle throughout.

Judges will particularly consider

• Straight lines
• Center rotations
• Spacing
• Relative placement of components

Explanation

The center rotations at ^50 are composed of two separate 90° rotations with a stop before and after each.

Judges will particularly consider

• Spacing
• Speed control
• Position within the precision grid
• Center rotations

Explanation

• The launch is from a wingtip stand.
• The 180° center rotations are executed in unison and end in a stop.

Judges will particularly consider

• Speed control
• Spacing
• Vertical slide
• Center rotation
• Position within the precision grid
• Straight lines

Judges will particularly consider

• Relative placement of components
• Center rotations
• Straight lines
• Position within the precision grid
• Backward flight

Explanation

The kites rotate 90° clockwise at each corner.

Judges will particularly consider

• Arcs
• Speed control
• Relative placement of components
• Position within the precision grid
• Timing

Judges will particularly consider

• Center rotations
• Straight lines
• Position within the precision grid
• Relative placement of components
• Speed control
• Backward flight
• Horizontal slide
• Landing

Explanation

All rotations by all kites are executed simultaneously.

Kites fly parallel upward to 35% vertical, stop and rotate 180° counter clockwise.

Kites slide right horizontally 35%, stop and rotate 90° clockwise.

Kites fly backwards 35%, stop and rotate 90° clockwise.

Kites slide right horizontally 35%, stop and rotate 90° clockwise.

Kites fly forwards 35%, stop and rotate 90° clockwise.

Kites fly parallel forwards and downwards, making a simultaneous landing on the leading edge.

Judges will particularly consider

• Speed control
• Spacing
• Timing
• Right angles
• Parallel lines

Explanation

All kites launch at the same time with the noses pointed at a 45° angle to the right.

All kites reach the top right side of the basket at the same time.

All kites slide diagonally up to and down from ^90

All kites land at the same time with the noses pointed at a 45° angle to the left.

Judges will particularly consider

• Speed control
• Timing
• Circle

Explanation

• No matter how many kites are flown:
• • A kite flying IN will fly OUT where the third kite clockwise has flown IN.
• • Their IN segments meeting with the circle must be equally spaced from each other.
• With 3 or 5 kites, kite #1 enters at 0°.

Judges will particularly consider

• Arcs
• Reverse flight
• Speed control

Explanation

All kites fly towards the centre.

At centre of window reverse flight into arc.

At 70˄ transition to forward flight level flight, parallel to original line of entry.

Call out immediately above the point where IN was called.
