Is somebody has any photos of his launch pole system?
I'd like see it.
If you have you could, send me at: alexandre.creff@wanadoo.fr
Thank's in advance.

Pictures are generally not that helpful as you only see part of the system.
Pete created a good guide for the single pole system which should help though. http://www.isoracing.org.uk/iso_guides/isotweaks/pole_modification.ht
m . The two line system is the same except there is no 'back to back block'. The pole line goes round the block at the front then leads back through the cleat by the mast and through the block just behing the daggerboard slot.
I am sure mine only has one knot? I guess knot #1 is so you you don't risk loosing the tail from the front of the pole. I have a knot outside the pole at the front which also helps keep the tack of the kite just clear of the pole. Halyard then goes backwards at the foot of the mast.
