Windy afternoons on Dolly

3 evening sessions on Dolly 3 days in the row!!! ;-)
Mon and Tue was 6m weather and very punchy, busy beach with lots of kitesurfers enjoying sunshine and high winds. Not the weather to try anything again...
Yesterday I ventured on my own and met up with Amanda and Derek on the beach.
It was foggy and rainy but really steady and lighter wind - perfect weather for my powerful 9m!
Only 6 kites on the water!!!
Spend few minutes having fun and then an hour an half killing myself trying to do a raley.
Out of over 30 landed 3 and I'm not sure if they looked anything like a raley at all...
Definitely no problems with unhooking, holding edge and power and hooking back in, but there must be something terribly wrong with my pop! Every time I crash is because I can't get high enough to be able to land and I'm ending up flat on my face/belly... It's either a kite a little bit too low or a bad pop!
Need to figure it out!
