Hi all! Genuine question, so please forgive the ignorance (and the wrongness of riding a twin tip in waves )

Just wondering what the advantages for unhooking would be please, given I ride a twinnie? I'm moving the kite around a lot as I go up and down the wave.

When do folks who unhook hook back in please?

Ta.

(1) Tricks such as raileys, tantrums etc etc are all lots of fun in small beach breaks

(2) When riding the wave, unhooking will let you open up your body to be more similar to snowboarding (for a correlation with the twin tip) or surfing

I'm a lazy fk and can't see why I'de want to.

I'm afraid I've got similar inclinations!

But trying to be convinced on the forum before trying it in real life
- I expect to stack it, need to sort out the lines, etc plus set up the leash different (Matt /Vishy and Airborne Kitesurfing have kindly offered to advise. Cheers guys). I've checked out Smack already too so have an idea.

Switching to a surfboard is certainly on the cards at some point (money wise). Also for now, I'm just having a ball in the waves on the twinny so the incentive to change is lower This question is really for the twinnie and Perth beachies (as mentioned in the title). I'd defo switch to a surfboard if I was riding Marg R reefbreaks regularly!

Thanks again for all the advice!
