I was out there from about 3:00-5:00. I just checked the wind on iKite and noticed it was about 22k gusting to around 27k or so at that time. I think that explains it, i just didn't have enough strap left to depower the kite as much as was needed. I even re-did the line setting on the kite to further depower it and it only helped a little. I didn't think the wind was gonna blow that much. Oh well, live and learn. My kite and I are okay to fly another day...when it's not blowing so much.
