Today I was flying and the winds were a steady 16-20 mph with some higher gusts. I don't have a vented yet so I was flying my standard B-Series. I went to double up the leading edge (2 wrap and 3 wrap) and I found I could only put in the second set in from one side. The other side had an extra stitch that did not allow the second leading edge to fit through. Is this normal? I flew, but I had about an extra inch of leading edge sticking out one side. I was careful not to to any tip stands on that side, and the kite flew good considering the winds. The leading edge did not flex near as much as Jeepsters vented using a 4 wrap LE.
Is that normal? I am debating trying to take a stitch out so I can set the leading edge in evenly. ANy suggestions would be appreciated.
