Thanks for the input Tom, glad you reacted well and quickly. I've been trying to get stories like this for some months. Suspicions about problems absent actual incident details don't go very far. What would you guess the wind speed was and what type and size kite were you using? What other sort of kites have you seen doing this? That is with wingtip tangles. You can tangle a bar on any kite going to my knowledge. Then again, maybe some bar designs are more prone than others?
