What's the trick with the kite? One can't see the kite handling. Does he leave the kite pointing towards the beach (coming in) or does he turn the kite back facing the waves when doing a bottom turn?

In short: what's the trick when waveriding? Keep the kite pointing at the beach when doing bottom turns/cutbacks or steer it back and forth?

Any tips welcome!

I think the kite is flown completely backwards during the bottom turn. It is also something I am struggling with.
On http://www.reelfresh.com (i think), there is a point of view video that shows waveriding with this technique. Nice to watch!
