any clues on getting them out

The gentle chew seems to work miracles - I use the front teeth and roll the knot around a bit

just leave it there...
tie a knot in your other line if you're into symmetry.

I wouldn't leave it there, as other have said a gentle chew works a treat, I have got a couple out even when pulled up real tight, but i find it helps to keep your mouth well lubricated with beer whilst doing it and of course after to celebrate.

Yeah not really cool. A knot in any line or rope creates a weak spot.

thanks for that crew looks like a nite of chewing

that was to easy 5mins chewn a bit of picken at it
presto knot is out

they are all a number of good suggestions, but rolling the knot on a hard surfacewith either a smooth pice of wood to press down on is the go just keep the direction the same. then bend the knot open by bringing the line together, it may seem like little progress but it does actually open the knot without damaging the line.

it should take approx two cans of beer,if you dont swill it down.
goodluck

Just replace it with a new one. Can you imagane how anoyed and potentionaly dangerous it would be if your line broke while you where out the back of your local break and had to swim in!

Forget that Sh*$ Ive been there before and never again!...(if I can prevent it of cause!)

Your Lines are the only thing conecting you to your power sorse.Your kite is the only thing that will bring home back to the beach safely.

How can you be sure after nawing on your line with you teeth that the line will hold in strong winds or light for that matter.

If your lines,bridles,pig tale's,chickloop rope's, and so on look dodgy just replace them.

Each and everyone to their own of cause...but for me I want to come home with my sheild under my arm.

Your call

Best of luck
