Started doing rotations today


A front then a back roll (or vice versa) ... was using the Speed2 19 so had to untangle the lines :lol:

Uncle Pyro did a back roll and I was like "Doood! If HE can do it, I can!" So I had a crack at it for an hour or so in the light wind ... landed a few, slammed many but cackled and woohoo'd a lot! :wee:

That's all, carry on.

No video sorry ... I did promise myself I wouldn't try it until I could use the 16m Xbow with the line mount for the GoPro but ... the wind has been so crap for so long that I've been on the SA2 almost every session ...



Yeah... I got a kite. Or two...

Yesterday ... riding with wrecked arms, I'm getting pretty good with the back rolls. Speed2 19 is SO easy to play with cos it's so slow to redirect but makes so much lift ... or HOVER-TIME ... for an hour, I got to ride on the Cabrinha demo kites and the SB and XB and Vector gave me a kicking - too fast for me to handle ... yet. Had one very interesting pendulum experience though.

Tomorrow ... hopefully some more wind to play with :)
