Just received my new to me venom2 19... winds in the am are forecast to be 10-15. . What settings would you suggest for the center strap and wingtip
straps for first flight.... I'm sure i will be landing and adjusting, landing and adjusting....... Just would like a good starting point......
Needless to say i'm excited, nothing like a new kite to be frustrated with....
And to top it off, I should be receiving my brand spanking new synergy 12 the end of next week, hopefully.... THANKS TO DINO !!!!!

is it your very first time on an arc kite ?
my suggestion: get yourself a leafblower or something that helps you pre-inflate the kite to the max. as a beginner with arc kites, this will safe you
a lot of troubles. lateron, with more experience, you can launch your arc also underinflated.
also, i would set the internal straps all loose. this is afaik easier to launch the kite.

Congrats on the kite. I've been trying to get a Venom 1 set up. Think I'll do what herc suggest and loosen my center strap, as I don't have them on
the tips.
Which bar are you using?
I put together a PC 120mm fan with two 9v batteries to inflate. It works.
But if you go out in no wind and don't get a launch, seems air gets back out before you do.
a leafblower would be quicker and you could probably shoot it in from the front intakes while waiting on the breeze.
but if your expecting 10-15, no problems.
Yea, post videos.
