Any tips on tuning my 9m 07 rebel? Apparently it turns REALLY QUICK! (although i dont notice it since it is my first and only kite) any tips on how to slow it down? i have already changed the back lines and have shortened the bar.

I take it you are already are using the forward pigtails, if you are finding it too fast?

Use the back pigtails. This will give you more power and make it turn much faster.
I use the back pigtails the whole time now but on a windy day i move them forward

rear pigtails = lighter bar pressure, faster steering, less depower.
front pigtails = greater bar pressure, slower steering, more depower.

On my 12 I used to use the rear pigtails the whole time, but on the 9 you may find this too twitchy and responsive.
