Tic Tac Toe

How to

1. 1

   Boost a high rotation

   Send a big, controlled jump with a rotation, on a kite you know well in moderate wind.

2. 2

   Back foot out first

   Take your back foot out of its strap on the way up.

3. 3

   Grab, then front foot out

   Grab the board and slide your front foot out so the board hangs from your hand.

4. 4

   Spin and catch the toe edge

   Start the board spinning with your hand and catch it by its toe edge once it has come round.

5. 5

   Feet back in and land

   Bring the board back under you, put both feet in while you still have height, then land heading downwind.

Common mistakes

• Not enough height

  →Only try it on jumps with plenty of hang time.

• Front foot out before the grab

  →Hold the board first, then free your front foot, so it never falls away.

• Feet in too late

  →Start bringing the board under you as soon as you catch the toe edge.
