When grabbing my front lines for relaunch on the water I depower the kite with the adj. strap & pump the kite by pulling on the front lines with sharp long strokes. 2. I prefer my FRONT LINES 1-2 cm. shorter than my rears. 3.When underpowered keep the kite flying by continually moving it back and forth from one side to the other. If i'm heading in with a dying wind I 'pop' from one tack to the other. I find a series of quick transitions keeps my board from sinking under me.l
