I don t think thats a proper kite loop. If it is, then I do them all the time.

Sorry, but on the first movie, the kite does not loop. I wouldn't call that a kiteloop. A transition is possible with a kiteloop. You just need to have more airtime as on the second movie.
And you do not need to be as high as your kite (though that's killer offcourse
)
