Step 4Attaching the Bridle and Tail
The Bridle is the part of the kite where the string is attached directly to the kite (where you made the holes) the string will be attached to both the top and bottom of the kite and create a juncture. You will need to have enough slack to allow the bridle to run parallel to the kite without being able to cross it. (if the string is too long, the kite will be able to flip) When you tie your bridle to the bottom of the kite, you need some excess to attach your tail.
Attach the main kite flying line at the measured point (photo 3) when the point is at a 90 degree angle.

great looking and easy to make...until you get to the part about attaching the bridle. It looks like the bridle is on the back side of the kite, yes? And are you poking 4 holes on the top for the string...does it crisscross here? Kind of confusing.
