Always try you first kiteloop away from the prying eyes of the local crew! Get down to your local oval until you've perfected it preferably one that's got concrete grandstands n **** so the turbulance will force the kite round Get a vid n whack it up here to show the doubters your metal Remember you'll never, never know, if ya don't give it a go yeah!!! You rock!

Cheers to those who gave me constructive critisism, to those who didnt take note of my profile signiture- be warned.

Anyway last night got out on the water and mastered the kiteloop, not to hard really. Ive turned into a kiteloop machine over night..Maybe i should change my alias to "kiteloop machine".

Next on my list is the handle pass, ive heard its a little harder, might take me a week to get on top of it, then another week to combine the two tricks...

Do you guys think im learning to quickly, where is there to go after the kiteloop to handle pass?

Dont dice with the DevilFish

Fish slimy scaly creature that is nice to eat baked with lemons.

Devil fish you are a possessed scaly slimy thing that tastes good fried with lemon, i fail to see what we need to be warned of.

Whats so hard about a kiteloop? you jump then pull the bar.
powered is the key word

Getting above the kite is is the hardest thing about a kiteloop, try it sometime

Any moron can do a downloop. try a true kite loop,use your forward hand. Dont be a ***** and do the loop at above 10 o'clock. Get sum air and get above the kite.Spose you all brag bout your backrolls,unless you get that board above your head its a 'backspin'.
LOL

Something Interesting......

"With a kiteloop the kite is not kept overhead but looped, either direction, in mid-air obviously generating lots more forward pull. This is where things start to get a bit fuzzy: only rarely will the kite manage a complete loop and with bigger kites it's simply not possible to do a full rotation. You quickly realise that it's much easier, and less sore(!), to loop the kite while on the land/water/snow than in the air. So how far round does the kite need to go before you land to be a kiteloop? My basic rule of thumb is that the kite must be pointing towards the sky rather than the land/water/snow. This means that most of the kite's loop must have been completed in the air, it's a mid-air kiteloop after all.

You can loop the kite either way: backwards (opposite to the direction of travel) is easiest as the kite has less distance to travel - it's already done some of the loop as part of the jump. Forwards requires a bigger jump because the kite needs to move back over the top of the window and then loop. As I found out at the weekend it seems some people are claiming kiteloops as normal jumps then just downturning the kite on landing and heading off in the other direction. This isn't the same thing at all in my opinion. Don't get me wrong these are nice moves to pull but they aren't kiteloops.

"(Note on Kite Loops: As the sport evolves into this new era it
is important to understand the differences in kites to judge the manoeuvre. The more inside itself a kite turns the easier a kite loop is. The more dynamically powerful the kite, the harder a kite loop is. For example: If a kite just rotates 360dgs directly above a rider's head, it is just a 'kite spin'; but if it carves a massive powered arc close to the water line with rider airborne, then that is surely a real 'kite loop' or 'power loop'. If the kite is de-powerable in the middle of that manoeuvre the skill level required is reduced, as with all manoeuvres of course."

narro minded
I have tryed them and I can do them.
I'm over kiteloops moving on to the next move.

DevilFish/professor did you fella's have the same English teacher at skewl?

It's just too coincidental to be ignored...

Come out from under that bridge little troll[}:)]

Hey azza,
I think you're barking up the wrong tree there.

Ive come back after the weekend and there are 55 posts. Sorry guys im not ignoring you, just been out over the weekend knocking out some gnarly killer loops... I got a bit of a fan club on the beach this weekend, they were asking me how I had been kitesurfing for, I told them only 2 weeks and they were amazed...

By the way, G'dog and poor relative, hows longs your comedy double act been going. Can we catch it anywhere aroung perth soon. On second thoughts give it up, and stick with cooking. And while your giving stuff up, put kitesurfing on your list. It would mean two less bods shamefully walking back up the beach...
