Megaloop

How to

1. 1

   Build big height

   Edge hard and send the kite up for a big jump, only once your kiteloops feel solid and in conditions you know.

2. 2

   Loop before the peak

   While you are still rising, pull the back hand hard and push the front hand forward to throw the kite into the loop.

3. 3

   Hold the bar in

   Keep the bar sheeted in through the loop and stay compact as the kite pulls you forward.

4. 4

   Let the kite climb

   Once the loop is complete, ease the bar out slightly so the kite climbs to 12 o'clock and catches you.

5. 5

   Land downwind

   Point the board downwind and land with knees bent, riding out the speed.

Common mistakes

• Looping too late

  →Start the loop before the peak of the jump so the kite has time to come back up.

• Releasing the pull

  →Keep the bar in and the back hand pulling until the kite has come all the way round.

• Sending too far back

  →Send the kite less far toward the window edge so it keeps the speed to finish the loop.
