Thanks Tom - great instructional video, more please! You mention Heli loop also before landing but didn’t expand or show this on the video, Q1… is this a backhand kite loop again just before landing with kite above your head? Q2… And for learners like me who can jump quite high now but never looped during a jump maybe try a Heli loop just before landing initially? Appreciate your really great videos, as always! :)
hi mate, stoked you like the vid. So the heli loop can either be forward or backwards, depends a little on where the kite is and what you are comfortable doing. Yes I would say if you have never tried a loop before then its definitely worth trying some on landing first (warm up heli loops) I will do a video on that too!! 👍👍
@@jackdehert1159 I would say that may be because you need to keep your core engaged, lean your upper body back a bit and don't let your legs drop into the landing too soon!!... hard to say without seeing it tho!

Thanks.. i loop 10 qm with a catch.. is it possible with a 11qm dice sls? Dies he catch you? 12 i never loop..
Great video! I tore my ACL recently on a kite loop and am looking for a good brace to use post-op. Any recommendations?
Yours looked like CTI customs but I couldn't really tell...
Yea I am using the CTI customs at the moment, I used to use Ortema from Germany which are next level too!!
Amazing flat. What spot it is?

it also doesn't need to be a 'loop' it can also just be a big dive... but I will go into that in a separate video!!
@@tomcourtkite I'd like to see a video on this, I think its a pretty underrated skill to land high jumps and loops with just a dive
Hey Tom, Nice video as always! I'm just starting to learn kiteloops but I keep getting pulled Sideways when I try to go higher. Got any tips?
When you say pulled sideways, what do you mean? Rotating under the kite? Landing on your side?
@@tomcourtkite Yes, so I rotate while swinging under the kite and land sideways or on my back.

@@tomcourtkite Thanks for the tip!
