line tune up_older flysurfer pulse 2 foil kite


Hello to all in forum...keep playing and trying to tune this older kite.... flysurfer pulse 2>>I am newbie.. so learning as I go

need some help...

kite is flying reasonably well.. I did the "mixer test" to the "default" setting

issue is: not stable at the ends of window.... tips will fold at the edge // also>> a kite has a tendency to overfly at the zenith

other than that..... reacts to bar changes quite well.. turns well in the middle of window

how should I adjust the pulleys ( mixer test).... more kite shape/ deeper profile... longer c and b line??

thanks for your replies

Firstly if you have done the mixer test I would also check your flying line lengths.

As for the wing tips folding I would guess it is to do with the age of the kite. With a lot of years under it's belt the cloth may be a little porous, however I am only guessing on the info you have given.

What wind strength are you flying it in?
What kite experience do you have?
