Break Lines???
Hi Guys,
i just brought a Radsail Pro 5m,but i am not sure which are the break lines and which are the Power Lines as they are completely detached from the
kite itself,also,they do not appear to be color coded,when i look at the lines TWO of them are quite a bit thinner,would i be right in thinking they
are the Break Lines?....Apologies for the silly question but obviously i have to be sure.
Many Thanks.

Yes.... thinner lines are the brake lines.

And if you get it wrong and put the brake lines on top you stand a good chance of making them break lines. Don't ask me how I know that LOL.
Yes, looking at the gauge of the line is a good way to differentiate lines that are not color variegated.
