Guys..
I've been practicing these tips for years and I'm verry happy to see an expert confirm my feeling that big 8's is more efficient than kiteloop. great video!
Hi Luke. Thank you for the great free experience you ptovide us with. I think that one of the reasons why I love this sport is you and your channel.
Awesome video mate! Just came back from 3 light wind days of lessons. Your pointers are priceless!!
love your videos mate!
Great video! Very helpful
Great video as always. I subscribe the appreciation we all have about your videos and useful information you kindly give us. Your experience and personal perspective is invaluable. Considering this particular video, it is true that you contradict somehow the ones that state that downloops (or underloops, as you mention them) are the way to go.
Thanks for all your videos!
you have the most comprehensive videos for beginners,, thank you so much.!!
This is the best Kiteboarding site I've seen especially for ppl just starting out. Man I wish I had this when I started 8 yrs ago. What a great teacher Luke is... very nice. Lots of the kite channels are just highlight reels for advanced kiters, which is cool but doesn't help the weekend guys who get out maybe 20x / yr. Awesome lightwind tips.
Thank you for your great videos. I am learning so much from them.
Thank you Luke. We just got out from a lockout due to COVID so I didn’t resist to go kiting with no more than 10/12 kts and must admit it is quite thought, even with a foil kite of 15m2! All your recommendation are always great and I tried to applied them. When wind picks up a bit it was perfect, but under this it was just enough to go and go back 100m downwind. I will try your flat board and bended legs position (I rather tried to lean back as much that I could, without success..)😎
Luke. Great stuff. Spot on. My no wind life in san diego has taught me to also use a wave surf skill as well. smooth rail to rail carve combined with a little squat and extend, this is all to pump and make speed. Similar to what a surfer does on a wave face. These can be quick or slow but has to be in sync with the kite. Easier said than done. The wiggle is often the make or break for me getting up to speed in a lull or making it into a wave . Cheers
Great vid 🤙 I find the kite will climb faster after a power stroke dive by slowly releasing bar pressure when you want to kite to rise again .
Many thanks 4 the video
Actually, depowering the Kite with the trim decreases turbulence and as the air flows better the Kite gives more power and does not backstall as much
Great tips Luke.
Another great content video Luke thanks man. Is that the new 3.0 shift bar? Can hardly wait to get mine.
Great vid as usual mate. Some great tips. Maybe another one for me would be lose some bloody weight! Btw, you are obviously an Ocean Rodeo ambassador. I have one of their new Aluula kites here in Melbourne and am very impressed. Incredibly light and responsive. Having said that I’ve only used it twice but I’m looking forward to using it some more. Bring on those Summer afternoon south westerlies!
Great advice for light wind on normal kites. Very large High aspect/race kites for even lighter wind like to get parked though. Throw in a loop or a big power stroke to start then push them right up into the edge of the wind window, park them and build board speed to generate apparent wind heading upwind.
