Nature of the beast or need a tweak ('07 Frenzy)?
I've noticed my Frenzy 10m tends to over fly me a little too easily.
it may just be the winds I was in (it was a bit gusty) probably 8-12mph.
How do I keep it from over flying?
Or is there a tweak that I need to do to the setup that would help?
thoughts?

Pull in on the bar a bit as it hits the edge to Slow it down / back it off.
If you aren't overpowered sheet out a bit on the trim strap.

My Access2 10m behaves like that the bar trick works well. Another trick is if you have enough power sheet out (depower) the kite some when trying to
get upwind it will do the same and presto you can point higher (slower too but hey it is good for getting back to your gear.)
