I am riding a 2005 17m best yarga with a 20" SS bar. Should I have a larger bar? I am noticing that the kite just doesn't turn like other people out on 17s in the same conditions. I am wondering if I am not turning the bar aggressively enough or if the bar just needs to be larger.

Probably a larger bar would help, maybe 22 inch or 23 inch. Are you using a 5th line? The 05's handle best with 5th line setups (though I pretty much never fly mine on 5 lines.)
