TOPIC: landing the big boost - tips?

landing the big boost - tips? 8 years, 4 months ago #1470

  • guest
holding the edge, send the kite back to the middle and up we go!!! no worries......

all the videos out there always show nice.....nice landings from some mother jumps and i'm sure those of you big boosters can bring it down smooth. any tips?

at this stage i'm flying high, coming in to land and normally end up with my ass in the water for a second before the kites back in the power. should i be thinking of landing with the board pointing downwind more? turning the kite into a dive from center earlier? or do you decide which direction your going to go, toeside or not in that split second before touch down???

dont worry i probably wont win the nationals, i mean nz kiteboarding champs with all your fullas tips, not the competitive type......
