Subject: Buggying Tips

I just won a buggy and Sky Tiger 26 from Catch the Wind kites in Oregon 
and I was looking for some tips on flying foil kites and buggying in 
general.  I have trouble getting the kite inflated.  Once it's inflated 
it flies great.  I've tried pulling back on the lines to get it in the 
air, then turning the kite horizontal so it will move and fill its sails.
That works pretty well when I can pull it off.  Usually it ends up not 
getting enought air in the sail and flops around on the ground flipping over.
I paid attention to make sure the lines were stretched and equalized.  
I've also played with the bridle adjustments.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
