Whats everyone think of light wind re-launch of 17m kites. I've got a Gaastra set up as a 4 line, but its feels almost impossible to re-launch in lightish winds in choppy seas. . as its a pulley less bridle it doesnt roll over very well, and pulling both centre lines then swimming at it didn't work very well...at all.

Am I better off converting to a 5 line so I can get it on its back easier? Or is there a tech tip to help?

thanks

pull a steering line and the opposite centre line

It's a gaastra, the centre lines splits 4 meters up unlike an ozone. Or am I missing something.
