Kite loops are just about the best way to hurt yourself !!!!!!
In a normal jump you need to wait till you reach the apex of the jump and
start to come down. Then pull like hell!!!! If you went high enough the kite
will make a full loop and slow you down before you hit the water....if you
werent high enough it is all looking pretty bad for your knees and your
board!!!!! In a transitions it is diferent. When I land with the kite to far
out to the edge of the window I loop it round to generate power and avoid
sinking.
Not sure what the future is of kite loops but I am trying to tie them in
with all the moves I can do already, that means alot of work and alot of
crashing but its all good clean fun!!!!
Take it easy
