Bridle adjustment - Turning circle

Mon Dec 19, 2011 8:44 pm

May I ask how to tighten the turning circle of a kite by adjusting the bridle? I presume by moving the tow point nearer the 't' and/or setting the kite slightly more heavy? Thanks H

Easiest way is to shorten the inhaul a little moving the tow point towards the centre T. Try about 1cm to start with as a small adjustment can make a big difference.
