was wondering --lately i have been redirecting kite without looking at it,by feel and my jumps have been MUCH more floaty--anyone ever try this? it
seems like a better idea than looking up at the kite......

it is a normal progression
kite awareness moves into the hands rather than the eyes
"look" where you are going ( ie spotting the landing )
in time and experience, you just know where the kite is and what it's doing just by feel.
your head disposition becomes the element of concern for rotation and weight swing.
a dynamic system arrives and your eyes and head direct and lead the system.
hands/harness/kite are just the power component
wear a helmet
