@@george4260 would that be a good excuse if he loses his edge , crashes and tangles his lines around you putting you in danger?

I am glad you see this the same way. 🙌

I'm usually the guy on the biggest kite. I struggle to understand why everyone else thinks riding under powered is fun? They all have smaller kites, and yet I'm the one looping. I don't get it.

@@HelpMeObiwan1 I don’t get what is fun on riding brutally overpowered. If you like that kind of fight for survival kite sessions, then enjoy it. I remember to have been also on a 14m kite in about 22 knots. I had the biggest kite under the riders out there with my 68 kg. Wasn’t really fun at all. But it is not comparable to being in 40 gust 55 knots wind on a 5 meter kite. That is really dead brutal.

@@HelpMeObiwan1 Also don’t forget there is that point where the wind will lift you out of the water as soon as you bring the kite over you, and that with bar out, fully depowered. You will get in that situation much earlier than the others with their smaller kites.

Board or gf?? 😜

@@galacticorbit9311 huh? help me and others to understand you.

@@s2oooo no 😂 how could i miss that out? Is that your favourite move too?? I love it sooo much. Full on addicted to it 😇

@EpicGust still trying to land a mega loop on a hydrofoil 🙈. Family & kids have stopped me practicing 😔

@ i respect that

@@donronaldo5454 do you count in knowledge that will keep your knees safe for longer? Cos thats something you can learn too! Progression is not always about going higher or sending crazy tricks. It is about having better and deeper understanding of the what to do, why to do and how to do. Makes you be more efficient and more graceful 🙌 consider that!

Such a good summary. I will save it for later :) Thanks for the input! Yeah, I showed this to one of my recent clients, and he said that the in-person lesson helped him way more. This tutorial leads you, but if you already have some habits to overcome, you need personalization. We are all different!

Keep it stylish 🙌😂

What do you mean by that @ricophi2

@EpicGust I mean that instructors are not properly explaining to students that adding more power to the kite does not mean that the kite is flying better! It is important to understand properly concept ofnthe angle of attack and know there is a limit to adding "more power"

@@ricophi2 i am fully with you on that. The whole kite teaching is focused on riding itself and nothing more. I am keen to change it! Are you an instructor too?

@@expert7383 are you already in brazil?

thanks mate this really inspires me to get my other toughts out too!

I Appreciate this so much! Thank you!

@@freddydad1 not sure i am getting what you saying 🙃 can you clarify?

@EpicGust only that I see a lot of people that struggle to kite actively on a twin tip, a lot of these have moved to foils in my area.

@@freddydad1 i see. interesting as foiling is much more skillfull. I think the active passive video can convert anyone in a session to active rider. Thats not related to strength, it is a skill. For example tiny kids do ride actively straight away cos if they being pulled by the kite, they just lose line tension, so sort of they have to do this otherwise no success!

Awesome! Thank you! 🙏 let me know how it goes!!

I am in - lets do it show me the foootage theepicgust@gmail.com

Lets see if you can answer your questions just by answering these- As you come up from the active riding and your legs gets under you, correct - you push off with the back leg- is this going to move the board upwind itself? how is the front leg at that point? The tumbnail is the moment we talk about so all this is visible there in the moment. Now give me those answers!

@@EpicGust Tomorrow I will go kitesurfing I will try to implement what you said, and I will get back to you.

Appreciate that, glad you liked it! 🙌

Good questions thanks!

@@Baptiste_L all my questions in this comment. My takeoffs are okay, I was able to get sent to 7-8 meters with my 9 on the famous 30 kts winds of Maui (yes I felt overpowered lol) however I had to jump with a kicker wave, I think I need to carve upwind more. However when overpowered the kite pulls so much is hard so sit lower in the harness rly quickly

@@gillesbkf4315 So you just explained the most common mistake. I jump around the same height on my 7 in 20 knots! Learning how to get that peak power with progressive edging and bar sheeting out, and creating that power instead just pulling the bar is key. a lot on my mind. more videos are coming!

Thanks!

Glad you liked it!

Welcome to the crew! Glad you liked it!

Never siezes to disappoint 🤣🙌

I can but probably with all the possible variations that you doing it will be as long as an essay… what about you send me a video of your pop and i tell what to do with it?

You’re welcome 😊

Yeah, pop is everything! 😎

Appreciate it 🙌

@@rosbif00 that would be epic! Looking forward seeing you! Thanks for the feedback 🙌

@@warrenstrutt feb march- costa rica this is a smaller one for maxing out kite focus. one in egypt around April, more laid back and party, whole summer on lake como, and then november in brazil 🇧🇷

@@donronaldo5454 let me know how it goes!!

Thats quite a bit! Now tell me how much you spent on your progression?

@EpicGust Almost every three days of two years! 😁

@@gillesbkf4315 no bro i am going alone! Thats my point 😂 seriously- it is harder than you think. Even with decent client base- so far thats my experience!

Glad you like them! 🙌

Go for it! Let me know after!!

@@whateverwhatever18 thats what we all tell to ourselves 😂 whatever 😉

@@leapnlarry hey Larry thanks for your input. These are definitely new for many folks, but as the sport grows and we put more effort into understanding beginners mistakes (not the full beginners after waterstart but everyone who cant jump over 5 m on a consistent basis) and the ways these can be learned, these new terms will rise. In teaching this sport these terms helps for more riders to understand the concept, instead of using more vague terms or waiting years tilI they feel it naturally. Let me challenge your belief- just watch the riders on your spot at the next session and see how big of a wave they have after their boards. I think you will surprised that 70-80 % is riding passively most of the time. Missing the advantage that the proper active riding can give to them.

You got it! Let me know how it goes! ‼️

damn! i wish you did! thats hilarious :)) what made you afraid? do i look scary?? :D Super nice spot, I didn't expect that much wind and I was just strolling with the fam, so I skipped kiting. (also i had no gear with me ) There was a guy with a core kite keep trying and failing to get out, and i felt really sorry for him, so I decided to try to give him a tip if he came out next. he literally should have turn to active earlier to be able to keep the power, and he would have make it. thats it. but after 30m i gave up waiting :) it is so hard when i see them, and i want to help, cos not everybody takesa tip wellp in my experienec,e it is thin ice :)
