Adjust the fixed stopper down a bit so you cannot sheet out too much.
Undersheeted and the nose liked to drop on the old kites.
Just ride with a light pressure on the steering lines and they will be fine.
I rode my 2009 6.5 gypsy and 2009 9m smoke every now and then and they are a great kite.
2010 or 2011, no difference as of now.
In early 2011 an updated rabbit kite range will come with new graphics and a 10.5m.
My guess is design won't change other than an alternate bar design.
The original bar is my favorite.

This thread reminded me an old one :
viewtopic.php?p=548967#p548967
I am amazed to see that people said 2 years ago that the Rabbits were perfect with no tendency to Hindenberg at all, it was rider fault
.... and it is now recognized that it was a design issue at this time
Pimping side effect at its best
or incompetence
