too windy opening in sunroof open position

does anyone else find it very windy on your head when you open only the 'sunroof part' of the cabrio? when it's open all the way, not much wind on the forehead area, but with the sunroof (stage 1) open only...i get so much wind on my forehead. anyone else find a solution to this problem?

Open the back two windows all the way. It gives the air a place to outlet, and thus makes the cabin less 'windy' while still having air flow through.
