Today I entered the world of grab tricks and tried a few different ones while getting some fantastic air. I just had a look at this picture:





I found out that I can now successfully perform a Tail-grab, Tail-fish, Tindy and an Indy.

Loved it! felt great to actually do something that looks interesting instead of just mowing the lawn or do a half successful back roll.

Now to get the back roll combined with a grab!

What is your favourite trick? and how long did it take you to master it?

Fair enuf. Nice work on the stoke anyways. Always a good feeling when u dial something new. Am
Considering lessons on unhooked tricks but not sure if any1 does them. My progression has slowed after mastering a straight railey. Trying to get an unhooked backroll happening. Not even sure if this trick would be the next logical step?

My best trick by far is what i call a "board off knee grind"
Best way to acheive this is by riding in 5-10cm of water, simply get a fin stuck in the sand and let the kite do the rest!!!

missing a few key ones there: roast (back hand heelside edge between feet but in front of the legs), nuclear (back hand to nose or heelside rail in front of front foot), salad (front hand heelside edge between feet and in front of legs), taipan (between feet, toeside edge from behind the legs).
btw tindy is a joke grab and shouldn't be there. and it's 'melan' not 'melon'

That's what I learnt after the railey followed by the sbend, both tricks have a fairly hard crash when learning tho so try and ride as underpowered as u can, obviously still need enough power to get u up there!!

My favourite trick the other day was boosting, rotating 360 deg, then slamming onto the water on my side.
Still was fun
