4 pitch poles last Saturday. Mostly during gybes with the spin up. Singlehanded with wind conditions of steady 18 mph with gusts to 27 mph. Good news is - nothing is broken and under the right conditions 155 pounds can right a Blade fairly quickly.
Looking back on it, I think I was "crash gybing". Would low and slow be better????
The 4th pitch pole was old school without the kite up.
