Back Roll Kite Loop Handle Pass

Postby Tommyboy » Mon Sep 15, 2008 8:00 pm

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

How to practice this one?

Is it even worth it trying it in lighter winds with a 12?

Can you do an f16 and an L3 seperately? Basically its just about commitment, I think its easier than an L3 because you have the momentum going into the handlepass. You need a decent amount of power don't do it underpowered. Good luck!

L3 = Kiteloop backroll backside HP.

some acutally find it easyer that a normal KL HP as the backroll tends to put you closer to the bar before the pass is initiated. However, you need more power to be able to complete the rotation before reaching the top of the move and then pass the bar. In an L3 you can keep the kite higher than in std. KL HP in my oppinion.

Here is a vid:

If you want to be really pedantic, you sould call it a KL Late Mobe...

L3 ...Loop 360 ....but dont really care what its called.

Whenever I throw a loop there is usually a backroll in it..dont know why thats just the way it goes with me. So im close to flat 3's and want to start trying it with my f-16's.
Anyone have any tips? I know I need to finish the loop first in order to start the rotation. Anything else?

It will be a bit easier with a larger kite (12ish) as you get that stall or moment of weightlessness after you loop it. You will land harder but it should make the pass easier.
