hello.
I use the 65cm bar, the 80cm bar is a good bar when you use bridles, I use it but I prefer to ride with the 65cm. Good wind

I also have the Skoop 12.5, my problem is that in light wind <11 knots, i cant go upwind, I can manage to go back to where i came from. It seems like the kite wont fly far enough out in the window, and just "drags me downwind. The "fun" thing is that i can easyli do 10 foot jumps. i ride it without the bridle system, with 29 m lines, i tried 35 m it just got worse.
I ride a directional with big fins, and flying upwind with the RRD type IV 19 m2 in the same conditions.
When the 12.5 starts working for me, i'd rather sail the 8.5
Whats wrong?
