For those lucky enough to own a rally can u provide any tips for launching , landing the kite, with the new no pulley set up I'm expecting it will be a little different to the rpm and rev thanks

Piece of p1ss... I just pull the steering line around gently n hav the bar all the way out- this rolls the kite onto it's leading edge, then I pull the steering line again until it's up on it's wingtip and the again a bit more and ur off! I pull alot of depower on as well wen it's windy
self landing is easy too- I bring the kite down on it's wing tip ontothe beach, bar all the way out and gently pull on the top front line
I got two rallys, they r a dream!
Hope this helps

Just keep the front lines taught as you walk around into the window and it will stand up ready for you to launch. As on landing give the centre line a pull when it is down and it will sit right 99% of the time. It is still a power kite so give it respect and do it just like any other kite. There is always room for error so be careful or it will spank you, although i havent landed or launched an easier kite as yet.
