recomendations....?

Great looks like everyone is on the same page on this..

Also do any of u use a guage on ur pump? I think im going to get one. Just to make sure its not over/under inflated...

Alright.. Last thing
Do u think this small cold front will leave us anything for the weekend?

a gauge might be good to get some exact numbers.. but i'd just use the ole "flick the LE and hear the sound" method. You'll get used to the proper inflation pretty quick.

I am not sure if kites w/ One-pump style inflation benefit more from a pump gauge..

then again.. a gauge would never hurt..


what color 13m did you get?

Just pump it up really hard, to the point it starts to become difficult.
Thump the kite. It will start to ping when it's ready. You will get use to the sound it makes after a while, as Bryan said.

Tom, I wasn't trying to be a jerk, I just know that up means different things to people on things like arms/lines...
I just didn't want Jason getting it backwards.

Yeah, that was weird with the bridle. I had flown it for awhile already on the water for a couple sessions (it was a demo kite), but put new Qlines on the bar and wanted to tune it right before we rode. When we launched it again (like the 3rd time that day) it wouldn't steer too well.
The front bridle wasn't even attached to the kite. Never seen that. How it came loose after all that time is weird.
