THE absolute killer move at the start of this 2003 season is undoubtedly the handle pass. Young Aaron Hadlow unleashed this highly technical move while winning the recent Northsea Open Kiteboarding Championship in Belgium at the beginning of May, and just a few days before that it was Martin Vari during the opening round of the PKRA tour in Austria, 5 metres up above the water!!!
It’s taken the appearance of a new generation of leashes running from the rear/side of your harness up to the chicken loop itself at the other end for this brand new and super popular move to become at all possible (you risk ‘dropping’ your kite each attempt !). Here’s young British prodigy Aaron Hadlow in action!
