TT-17 TEAM DIAMONDS DOWNWARDS

Key Elements:

• equal length of diamonds' legs, sharp turns
• positioning of all kites on a horizontal line during figure
• minimum spread between first and last kite of 90°

Description:

• "IN" call:
  when all kites are lined up in a straight horizontal line at ^30
• Kites should travel approx. 10° before entering the Diamond figure.
  Each leg of the diamond is approx. 15°.
  All kites make the turns simultaneously
• "OUT" call:
  when the kites have flown about 10° on the same horizontal line at ^30

[top and bottom of each diamond are on a true vertical, hence the 'odd' shape of the outer diamonds on the diagram! ]
