Instruct someone to release their bar
Use this signal to instruct someone to release their bar. Often beginner kiteboarders have a mental block of not wanting to let go of their kites (even when they are in real trouble). Also when your kite is floating in the waves, it is often better to release the bar and let go of the kite completely. This will take the pressure off the kite and the lines, and reduce the chances of your kite (and you) being damaged by a wave breaking on it.
