TP - 12 DOUBLE DOUBLE U

Key Elements:

• equal distance (8°) between the kites during the figure
• (imaginary) line between the kites is horizontal during the 4 vertical stretches
• given size of the figure

Description:

• "IN" call:
  when kites are flying horizontally, kite 1 at ^43, kite 2 at ^35; top kite at <32, bottom kite at <47.
• As bottom kite reaches ^35<35 it turns, flying downwards.
  Since the top kite has already turned, both kites will fly at the same height.
  At all vertical stretches both kites fly at same height.
  Speedcontrol during curves is used to have entering as well as leaving the curves simultaneously.
  Distance between kites during vertical stretches and curves is a constant 8°.
• "OUT" call:
  when the top kite has flown at least 5° on the top horizontal line, at ^43.
