Almost always caused by underinflation, and too many red thumbs, pump the kite up harder.

Sounds like you are too soft... It's embarrassing, isn't it ?
Is this a common problem ?
Do you need to talk to someone about it ?

p.s. In a mad rush to kite the other day, I went out 'Soft' - it will never happen again !!!
