Hobie Tiger Kite

   We've just bought a Hobie Tiger so here's the first of probably lots of questions.
There is  a loop just below the halliard block at the top of the mast, should the kite go all the way to the block or is the halliard fed back down through the loop so the kite only goes up as far as the loop? If that makes any sense.
Cheers

	The halyard goes through the loop so that the spinnaker doesn't go past it.
