  6. Yes I had thought of doing that or another option could be to make a pin to go through the Handel’s where the holes are for the original fixings to go through a loop on a preleader line then through a bead to stop chaffing on the Handel tubes , the caps would keep the pins in place [emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app
  7. I’m working out a different way to do the fixing by running a line through the Handel’s and using beads at each ends of the Handel’s to act as swivels under the rubber caps reducing ware Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app
  8. I’m hoping I do [emoji4] and I’ve been flying a EXP but thinking the sail has stretched some [emoji20] Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app

  10. It was just the sail , for the first time I could fly in a box shape with the leading edge vertical and then horizontal doing side and vertical slides , within the first ten minutes of setting up I could do near perfect hovers, soon I’ll be practicing inverted moves [emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app
  11. Well I used the raw plug and screw method and took the leaders out the caps top and bottom , I noticed some other Handel mods had the leaders coming out at 90 degrees to the Handel’s and thought that could still snag , but the rubber is tight so will stop my leaders popping off the screws [emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app

  13. A massive thank you to oapbill for the sail he sold me I’m starting to think I can do this now , maiden flight was an hour long and in ten minutes I could do more than I have since starting my quad life [emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using KiteLife mobile app
