Hi guys I have a couple of questions to ask you. I just bought a twister 2 5.6meter and used it for the first time today.
1. the wind was about 5-10 miles an hour and i let my cousin fly it and he accidently crashed the kite leading edge (vents side) first into the ground
and it was kinda loud. My question is how bad is doint that? Does that cause damage to the kite over time maybe damage i cant see at first? Do you
really have to slam it hard to blow cells?
2. It started raining while i was flying and the lines and kite got wet, is this bad for the kite and lines?
3. Last question i have is hard to put into words. you know the lines that hook onto the bridle on the kite by way of a larks knot? Well, I was
looking at the lines (LOOP part of lines) and noticed that the stitching on the lines where they connect on the bridle via larks knot started ripping,
is that normal?
Ant info would be great thanks!

you dont want to crash it too many times, it can blow out cells or cause wear to the edge
you dont want to leave it wet for more than a couple days (flying it really helps dry it out!)
gonna need a picture of the last thing
