Another Megalooping thread
Just working up to mega loops.

I've got a few questions.

Now most guys appear to like 18-22m lines, but my experience with 20-26 makes me think it's safer to learn on the 26's. Let me explain......

I feel the trick with this is to not let the yank pull your centre of gravity away from landing directly downwind. Most of the time as long as I land backfoot first and directly downwind I have better success. So getting used to a little yank first makes sense before going for the 15m lines kite below your superman method. With the 26m lines the initial kiteloop is higher in the window, less kick. So the question is..... Do I stick with this until I make 20 or 30 in a row before moving onto the shorter lines? (Deeper kite loops)

The second question...... After the initial loop, I feel it's nearly always better to have the heli loop on the opposite side of the wind window. Is this a hard and fast rule? Everytime I've looped both times on the same side it ends badly.(feels like significantly less kite support)

Just trying to do this with the least chance of a major injury.

Favourite places to kite and Why !
Downwinders in the surf anywhere on the Sunshine Coast,

Supa uncrowded,no need to go upwind,

heaps of kickers for boosting,

heaps of waves for carving

Can have supa shallow banks in close near the shore,

Can loop over the beach,

Crystal clear water

Can cruise around an island

Cruising around Headlands

Can cruise up rivers,bit of flat water boosting,

Play in between the shore and the second shorebreak,insane fun

Fast directional changes,boosting ,poping over the shoreys,looping,

Racing across sandbanks as the water drains off and goes dry

Supa flat water between the whitewash

Go downwind for 40 km if you want

Land your kite on the beach ,pack up and catch the bus back to where you started

Relax,have a rest on the bus,

Then pump up and do it all over again
