Hi,
Please forgive the noob question here.
I have recently bought a 2009 Havoc and was just wondering how I connect the two center lines. I made the larks knot with my two center lines but there is no knot to put through to secure on the kite.
Can anybody with a havoc shed any light ?

If I remember correctly you make the larks head on the kite side and not the lines them self.

Ok thanks.
I will try kite side later. Knots on both side are incredible small for something so important, very surprised by LF for this.

Yep, this is correct.
I've had mine for a few years and they have held up fine. No need to go any bigger I guess.

Yeah I sold my 16m last year it was just too much kite for me. I could not ride it in anything above 14kts or I just got drug downwind.

Yeah, I remember when I first got my envys, I was wondering which side connects to which because there didn't seem to be any knots to larks head around! But they are there, and have never failed, so it works fine
