Was out today, wind was 10 kts and was doing ok on the 140 mako... Still needing slingshot starts a lot of the time...
Wind dropped to 8 kts, struggle to keep kite up..... Hmmmmm, whin I replaced the lines I had to lengthen the center lines to get it to fly
right...... I pulled out a couple 3" pigtails and lengthened the center lines some more.... Can't hurt to try...
Launched the kite, and noticed I had a lot more static pull.. Moved the kite around and it seemed ok....Out to the water..
Got up easy, but the kite would stall if I pulled in the bar.... Pulled the trim strap in a bit and tried it again.. Not quite as snappy start but
kite flew better, could keep going...
Nest start let trimmer out, got up and quickly pulled the strap in... zoom, up and over the waves I go... Not upwind but good run..
Kind of a pain in the @#* but it beats waiting for those extra 2 kts....
Wind let off a little more and I was done....
Only kiter out.....lol....
