North rhino relaunch

At 3:07, they show that tilting the bar as if you were steering it left or right will relaunch the kite if its on its back. Will this work with an 07 north rhino? Also can you make the north 5th element bar into a long throw so you can have total depower like the naish kites?

i have a North Rhino 2008 14m.

this thing relaunch quite easy just by pulling one rear line

in LW, if it does not relaunch easy (other LEI kites will not), use the 5th line to help

check the clam cleat, you can move it up or down depending how long your arms are.

I guess you could move it up all the way to have a longer depower stroke

I haven't had it out in decent winds yet except for one time when I forgot to relaunch it like a bow. Couldn't I just add more amsteel?
