have the PTskin 5.4 and really love how it flies... EXCEPT if you manage to catch a leading edge tip roughly on the surface and force a half liter of water into the tiny last closed cell!
Even with tons of wind in the rest of the wing... i have a hard time getting the water to DRAIN drain from the tiny mesh screen in the bottom the the last closed cell! most seems they should have put that mesh "drain" Material along the bottom of the last TWO cells maybe??
i love the light material of this thing but it's amazing how half a liter of water can make it almost totally "stuck" on whichever side of the wind window that you filled with H2O! ????
I've recently got the 5.4 m PT skin and after a few sessions am noticing some leading edge collapse when the wind picks up and it is well powered up.I have my hand quite far forward on the bar to help depower it , so not sure if this is contributing to the behaviour - anyone else seen this or is there a technique to keeping the canopy stable ?No such behaviour with my 3m PT skin - which is a great to fly when the wind is nuking.
