    I have experienced this too. It also happened when I used Tapatalk. I found that it only occurred when my network was a bit busy. Normally when signal is strong, it only processes for a second then shows the post. A duplicate post only appears if it takes longer than that in processing. My experience anyway.

    I am vouching for Del. Sad to see you selling these but really got the reason for it. It was great to fly with you. Maybe in the future we can fly some more. Good thing with having my own bag of revs, we can fly overlapping kites. Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app

    I got a set from "the Shooks" (a quick google search will get you there, won't post business as not a forum sponsor) and found them dead easy to set up. Had a set on a B2 Std as well as my 1.5SUL. Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app

    I've bought a kite and bits and pieces from Dave and have had a positive experience every time. Bought via the net and phone from Australia. Edited: added info as I'm an international buyer. Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app

    Perseverance is the key. The Indoor is a funky little beast. I fly mine outside all the time. Mostly on 20 feet as I'm outside... The mods are worth it. I've modded my Indoor handle too. Made bigger knots just where it comes out of the plastic grommet. I had the occasion that the leader was pulled inside the handle. I'm pretty vigorous with my inputs...

    Just a quick reply. I'll read all of it in depth later. Steve at Tappestry Kites used a broadseem in some variations of his Enigma dual line kite and found it very effective in making the sail more efficient. Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app

    And, Whatever twists you put in winding up get unwound when unwinding. Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app

    Yep. Even been to the shops to get the "resolutions" started... Hope all is good. Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app

    An extension lead gets that "curling" from being wound under tension. A lead that is looped into coils will never curl. In respects to kite lines, I wind my lines on relatively laughs and messy. I have no dramas with twists when unwinding. Still don't have a proper technique for winding into the handles yet... Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app

    Great to hear! Every bit of confidence will help unlock skills. Pretty soon it will come automatically and the really cool thing is, you will go "hold on, I just did that without thinking to!". Oneness with the kite.... Ommmmm. Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app

    Just an FYI, an app update was issued today. The persistent unread badge is now fixed. Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app

    You could use #90 for that. If the kite is getting a little unruly switch to #150 but #90 will do. Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app

    In my "street kite" I use 2 wrap outlers with a black race centre FOR ALL WIND CONDITIONS.... Hard working kite that one. Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app

    If it is the "A" formed by the handles, I think it is just the natural ergo state of your wrists. Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app

    Tapestry Kites, Steve Tapp, makes the Enigma in a heap of variations from SUL to Vented. In different sizes too. Worth a look. Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app

    Great to keep flying. Experience gives confidence. Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app

    7-15mph is the upper of a standard. Maybe look at a; "Light Vent" "Mid Vent" Or even a "Strong" Skysport (Lam Hoac) does a few in the vents, The Superfly range from Benson Kites covers that but it may be a bit of a hand full at 15, The Deepspace has a Std and Vented that would be good, SKD (SportKiteDesign) have the MXS in Strong that would suit as well.
