Breaking spars

OK, Freilein Vertigo Max.  That's the kite I bought at Kites Unlimited.  It's super vented.  It's not that expensive compared to revs, and is probably considered a knock off of the Rev.  

But with the equalized lines and super vented, I was in nearly complete control.  I mean, I'll not any good, but I figured out how to do tip landings with almost no force.  I also nearly tip landed on my son's hand.  My wife has a picture I'll post later of that.  

Anyway, victory!  Thanks everyone for the tips!

Beyond making sure everything is equalized and being on the right kite (frame, vent, etc), only the upper 10%-20% of pilots become sensitive to (and desire) certain characteristics beyond that point.

End of the day, I'm sure there is a wrong quad for any novice or intermediate flier to get into - as long as they get info like this so the gear serves them as well as possible.
