Ozone Manta mk1 12m Tip curl


Hi, I have only flown this kite twice so far, once in very very light 4-6 knots. I didn't even expect this old kite to fly, but it surprised me., It was a challenge, but it was clean wind and I managed to keep the kite moving.

The 2nd time was near (my) the top end 13-18 knots, I had a great time. And spent a lot of the time jumping. (really loving this depower lark)

The one thing that did happen on both occasions was tip curls, Is this normal for this kite or is there something that needs tuning. Or is there a known mod to fix the problem.

Or is it just a case of keeping this kite away from the very edges of the window and me getting used to it?
It's not really a very big problem but I would like to know if it's just me or is it the kite?

As I am new here, I can tell you that I have been flying FB's (Blade II 4,9 and a few others) since the 80's but only recently started flying with depower. I also weight 95kg and static fly only on the beach or Ice buggy / snowboard on the sea ice depending on snow and ice conditions.
