hey there,
is anyone riding with this one ?
my problem:
one of my kite-buddys wants to sell me his -
because he has problems with his ribs and needs a seat-harness.
he used it the whole last season and loves it -
i tried it out 3 times now. on the first day i was impressed, but could only ride for about 20 minutes. on the second day it opened itself and
left me puzzling it together with a tubekite dangling on the safety leash and drifting along about 2km downwind.
on the 3rd day it opened again. luckily i was flying an arc-stack and coulf fix it without danger ....
my buddy used it again for buggykiting a whole day - and it worked.
i know that he's not lying - iv'e been on the same spots with him last season and iv'e never seen him having probs ...
do these things have personality and this lil bastard simply dislikes ME ?!??!
or are there any possible things i could do wrong - i noticed that the hook was about 5-6cm too far on the left-hand-side - may that have caused it?
