hand plant backloop trasition
the idea is you want to pivot around your hand that is in the water as you do a back spinn and land going the other way (not as hard as it sounds)
ridding in heelside with plenty of speed. take you front hand off the bar place it in the water. slowly start to bring the kite above your head by pulling on your back hand as the kite starts to pull you off the water throw your head back over your front shoulder to start the back roll and as the board is leaving the water you want to be carving it up into the wind when you leave the water you want to be looking over your front shoulder to spot the lannding. the board should land going in the same direction but because you have been pulling on your back hand the kite will start to pull you back the other way as you ride off with a stupid grin on your face.
the big secret to this move is you should allready be able to do a back roll first and its all in the timeing of the kite. if you pull too hard on your back hand as you are going into the rotation it will just pull you clean out of the water and it will get messy
but if you dont pull hard enough on your back hand you will just fall on your back half way round and land on your back looking back at the kite
give it ago if you cant allready do it. as you get better at it you can add as manny rotations as you like. if you get the timing down this move can look realy cool (i think so anyway)
you can even use this move for something different on a slidder. instead of putting you front hand in the water place it on the end of a slider and pivot around that instead
have fun
