My spin sheets keep getting wrapped around the end of the bow foil when snuffing. Anyone have a quick fix?

Stand on the skeets so the kite does not flap when snuffling. once they go tight, release them.

Run your retreive line through a ring attached to the clew by a strop of about 300mm, as you pull in the retrieve line it brings into the bag your excess sheets by snuffing the clew earlier.

Have look on the F16 forum where it is well documented. Seems to work well. cool
