raley to blind is a backside rotation, which leads onto blind judge and then blind judge 3.
313 is a raley with a frontside 3, so maybe work on getting your krypt (raley with frontside 180) nailed first to lead onto the 313.

good luck ferty, hope you stomp them by the end of summer

I'm not totally sure which way I've been trying it, I'm easily confudsed when it comes to describing rotations. What I've been trying it doing a railey natural then leaving the front (left hand) on the bar and rotating 180 clockwise. Is that backside?

So a Krypt would be basically do a railey then land toeside?
Ahh so confusing!!! I'll just try it then work out what is is after I can stomp it!

yep, if you leave your front hand on and rotate, its backside (raley to blind) and you end up riding blind once you land. if you pass before the landing its a blind judge and if you pass before landing and rotate the extra 180 its a blind judge 3.

a krypt is raley to switch, so you just leave your back hand on the bar and do a 180. if you do a full 360 and pass the bar before the landing, that's your 313.

After damaging my ligament last session (sunday) attempting to land front rolls i think i might start with that. Then possibly railies and kiteloops by the end of summer.

A 5 star General!


Actually I want to find a decent 11m 2nd hand kite and start charging waves, not just gumbying along on half wave/half kite and not really anywhere at all...

Oh and I want my boosts to regularly get high enough to truly scare me like they were occasionally at the end of last season. Sometimes it is fun to lay some skiddies!! [}:)]

Go out in 10ft+ waves and catch some froth monsters! .

AND by 'catch' I really mean speed as fast as I can towards the shore while being chased by the wave somehow I find it really exciting when the waves are big, just to play games and see how long I can last before getting crunched lol.

But seriously, I wouldn't mind chucking a big boost off the face of a 6ft+ wave, the height would be epic hopefully it doesn't have a big brother wave behind it . I get to combine my flat water learning to boost and my surfing origins.

Also gotta get more consistent with the back rolls and hopefully learn to do a front roll and some other perty tricks... I'm addicted to boosting... very. Maybe I'll improve my deadman.


CAN'T WAIT!

A cure for cancer and a way for everyone, no matter what the colour of their skin or their religion, to live together in peace and harmony. And a front roll if there is time after that.

Kite Loop
Respectable Railey
Nice Transitions, like the walking on water one.

But just being back in a kite friendly location will be a big enough treat for a few weeks. If you hear annoying Hooting, it's probably me.

I want to find that 6 foot wave on a 30 knot day to ramp off. Hopefully we'll get some strong ones this Summer.
