F16 Pass

Yep, I agree with Bellz. F16 (aka kitelooped backroll) with a backside 360 airpass.
Good on ya though.

Ummm, that's a frontside 3 not a backside. Technically it is a KL back mobe.

who cares what its called .it looked pretty darn good to the bystanders on the beachso did the wipe outs getting therecmon frank where's the goof tape with all the good wipe outs .lloydys testament that you gotta be pretty brave and eat alot of **** to get there

You don't have to get inverted during a mobe. A mobius is a heelside backroll with a front side 360 handlepass. (Notwithstanding front mobes)

If you believe in the existence of a high mobe and a low mobe, you are talking about a high mobe. This is the inverted mobe and easier due to kite position.

ya it's F16 pass or KL mobe (backloop kiteloop unhooked with handle pass after).
It's not a backmobe. For the backmobe you must pass the bar during the first rotation. If you want to use "mobe" it's a kind of "kiteloop late mobe" or better : "KL mobe" !

Incorrect.

erm no, your incorrect.

or www.wakeboarder.com/tricks/handlepass.phtml

Dude, I don't know where you think you have shown I am incorrect but the walkthrough of the mobe is exactly as I have said. That is that you DO NOT have to pass the handle on the initial rotation.

Quote from the walkthrough:

"As you spot the water and begin to descend, pull the handle into your back to make the handle pass just like you do on your heelside 360. Keep the rope in tight throught the flip, or you won't be able to pass the handle."

In other words, after the initial rotation pull in to complete the frontside 360. Again, exactly what I was saying.

The other link you have also gone to the effort of posting also describes a back mobe in the exact same manner as I have further up the page, so again, thankyou for proving me correct.

So my advise, erm, would be to read first.

Actually what I was getting at was that you actually have to be inverted. In that video, its like a reverse S-bend (no idea what thats called)

gonuts said...

so im guessin as always you can all land this trick consitant as you all sound like experts on it ??????????????

Not yet but I'm working on it. What about yourself??????????????????????????

Regardless of this though, I don't see your point really. You don't need to be landing a trick before you understand the trick itself. Do you think that people need to be capable of doing something as simple as a railey before they understand what it is that constitutes one?

You think all the judges on the PKRA do all of these tricks before they are allowed to judge?

u cnt land wrapped and blind sorry its just not possible

bellz said...

u cnt land wrapped and blind sorry its just not possible

I thought landing wrapped and blind was the same thing?

Nope, well not in kiting. I think maybe in wakeboarding but don't quote me on that one.

In kiting however, blind is landing with your back to the kite and wrapped is landing facing the kite. (both with the bar behind your back)

Or another way. If you land blind and have completed the handlepass you will be riding toeside. If you land wrapped and have completed the handlepass you will be riding heelside.

And in case you ask gonuts the answer is yes.

im calling u on that charl...... u cant land these!!!!
prove it biatch cause i havnt seen even a L3 from u big man

Charl dv said...
