Hi,
I have a 10m Soul. It's fine in the air, but once on the ground the free tips flaps like crazy. Putting sand on that tip is not enough. The kite starts oscillating and throws the sand off.
One time, before I was able to open the velcro air outlets I ended up with a bridle tangle that I spent quite some time untangling at home. Would have been impossible to untangle on the beach and have another session (wind was less than 20knots).
).
Today in 17-20knots of wind my wife was keeping the upwind tip down, and I wanted to fold the downwind tips over the downwind one... was very difficult to get hold of it... I even think the amount I had to pull may have stretched seams... I don't think panels are supposed to be grabbed and pulled with force...
I expect to be able to use this kite in higher winds, but I have doubts about being able to handle it on the ground easily after landing.
Any tips on stopping the downwind tip flapping?
