A whole lot of looping.....and some hangtime.

Postby Bladesurfer » Thu Sep 06, 2018 8:44 am

A fast small edit from beginning of summer.
Practicing kiteloops with my beloved Edge V9 8m.
Very gusty wind unfortunately. The wind was about 20-25knots.
Got some nice hangtime. 9.6 sec according to the Woo.
Anyone else looping with the Edge?
It always catch you and you can chose how much you want it to pull in the loop.
Loop it early and slow to get catapulted horizontal.
Like it alot!

Nice edit. Looks a nice spot.

I've seen a couple of other people looping edges but I think the shape makes them less popular as they presumably don't pull so much through the turn.
