Starting to wonder why i'm bothering, but i'm really struggling to complete this transition. On several occasions today my efforts resulted in the kite crashing into the water as I focussed on pivoting the board round. Anyone else with the same problem? Any tips or suggestions appreciated.
Google/YouTube is your friend. Watch it repeatedly Run it in your head repeatedly Get out there and have a go.. over and over...and over. Don't get discouraged if you can't nail something straight up. Success = Time on the water
as per beer hunter. IKitesurf has a good instructional video with a female kiter doing a duck tack. The water in the video is mirror flat and I'd say it was a low wind day with a big kite which helps vis-a-vis kite crashing into water.
Thanks for the replies I've spent some more time studying the video and a mate who was out at the same time has provided some thoughts. Roll on the next session for my next attempts
