Hello everyone,

Recently acquired a 2006 F-one Tribal (1st version) and I have some questions about it.
Things I've noticed...

- Seems to be really picky how much I power of depower the kite
- Seems to stall quite easily even if I pump it hard.

The low-end is not what I'd expect from a 9m2 kite. I'm really having trouble dialing in the trimstrap to be exactly right. Before the Tribal I've used a 2007 F-one Impact as my 9m2 kite. Turning seems to be very quick but the weird thing is that if I yank the bar to try to turn it quickly it doesn't seem to like it.
Is this just me getting used to a "wholelotta depowerkite" or is it just the kite itself? Any tips to trim it correctly or to ride it correctly? More wind did help but it still seemed to be a very uneasy and not a very constant power kite.
