I have watched all the cabrinha tech videos on self landing with the ids system but still having trouble controlling the kite when it is on its back after activating the ids line. I have a 2010 crossbow 13 meter kite. When the kite is on the beach on its back after ids activation it elevates off of the ground as you are walking up the centerline. It will sometimes get 10-15 feet off of the ground. The only way to keep it on its back and on the ground is to run towards the kite holding the centerlines. If its windy you cant run fast enough to get the kite to come down. If you stop running towards the kite allowing tension in the centerlines the kite climbs higher in the sky.
I dont understand the mechanism that is suppose to allow the kite to stay on its back on the ground as you walk up to it for recovery? These kites will not lay still on there back in wind unattended after you inflate them . Try letting go of a bow kite on its back,on the ground ,in wind . It wants to rise up into the air,its still wanting to lift off of the ground.
The only thing i can think of doing to remedy my problem is to pull on only one centerline as i walk myself up to the kite so it will hopefull flag out in the air and come to the ground. Anyone else experiencing these problems with the cabrinha ids landing system? I feel like a retard having these problems.
