Method for landing a kite system (23), in which the kite system (23) comprises a kite (14) and a control pod (25). The kite (14) is held on the control pod (25) via a line system (24). The control pod (25) is held during normal operation of the kite system (23) via a tether (15) on a ground-based attachment point (16, 44). A sail surface of the kite (14) is spanned by a first kite part (40) and a second kite part (41). A connection (36) which exists in the sail surface between the first kite part (40) and the second kite part (41) is separated such that the kite (14) assumes a different aerodynamic state and falls to the ground with the control pod (25). The invention also relates to a kite system.
