Hey folks should have looked a little longer before posting previous post. I found the info I was looking for on how to cinch down the leading edge. But I do have a question can someone tell me what is the wind range on this kite is, someone at the kite festival told me it was the older version. I found one site said 2 - 12 mph it seams a bit heavy to fly at 2 mph?

You will find it best in the 5-12mph range. Any less wind than that, you will have to work it. Be very careful with the lower spreaders, you can't get those anymore. The Illusion is a pretty tough kite, I've never broken mine, but I always keep that in the back of my head.

Take a look at this post as far as the wingtip lashings, might help...
