I have to admit when I first started I wound two lines at a time. It takes a bit longer but reduces stress if you're having issues. I still do it now if my lines have become wet or I've had a bad unwind previously which sometimes just happens unfortunately.
Clearly, I'm part of the problem.

Errm, does that include normal crashing by a beginner with 2 left hands? :oops:

Its better than I did with my first quad. I used to destroy end caps like they were going out of fashion. I was considering a once monthly repeat order at kiteworld :)

Its well worth the pain though :)
