In this article we will cover 2 advanced moves plus some survival tips when it all goes wrong.
Lets start with the the forehand SNAP. This is a surf based turn which feels as good as it looks. The turn is done in the pocket of the wave and is not as vertical as the Re entry.
1 Go hard off the bottom
2 Aim to hit the lip or just under it if its not broken yet.
3 Jam your back foot down hard
4 SNAP the nose of your board back down the wave. - hence the name
5 Keep your weight forward as you come down but be carefull not to nose dive the board
Kite Position - Keep the kite low and have it travelling in the same dirction as the wave.
Style tip - Don't watch your spray - it looks like a pose and you have better things to focus on like the next turn!
