When flying, sometimes you get a gust of wind followed by a lull and the lines go slack. What techniques does anyone use to prevent this or when it happens, what do you do?

Exactly !aklbob wrote:depends on the kites characteristics, some kites don't react well to having their depower yanked, and it may just tug it out of the sky, but if you move the kite around continuously, and don't let it sit at 12, it will be less likely to fall, as you are keeping it back in the power zone a bit. Even better, don't leave the kite high in gusty conditions, keep it 10m above ground to one side, obviously it depends on the location, and how powered you are.
