I guess you mean it's doing a Hindenburg. I usually stop it slamming into the water by ripping on one of the steering lines to turn it sideways so that when it floats downwind enough to take up the slack its sideways and zooms across rather than down. Works about 89% of the time.

Or yeah you could pull the safety but cbf doing that. depends on the safety system, how twisted your middle lines are for how well that would work.

Start to redirect ur kite sooner - slightly before the top of the jump.

Same goes for your rotation,if ur finding the same problem. Prepare for a few harder landings tho

Yeah i used to have that problem with the kite sinking fast after i stuff up a jump what i used to do is what 7tim said and also swimming/running backward away from the kite to take up the line length faster but can still be a some rough crashes
Happy Kiting

If you feel you are going to swing under you need to start signing your kite to keep the kite flying or.........loop it.....if you make it you look hard core if not your still swimming.........

redirect harder! simple.

your leaving the kite behind you and not flying it forward.

if in doubt loop it!. it wont fall back when its looping!!!

Do a kite loop.
