	Reach for the outside leader line furthest away

	Bring the leader line around your bar and grab the other leader line closest to you

	Roll your leader lines up in a figure of 8 pattern around the middle of your bar. Don't run your leader lines along the full length of the bar, as the leader lines combined with your regular kite lines will form a thick layer of lines that will eventually fall of your bar

	Once your leader lines are rolled up and you get to your regular kite line, roll your kite line up in a figure of 8 pattern around the full length of your bar.

	Leave a short length of line to form a knot over your bar that will prevent your lines from coming loose and causing tangles.
