Wake style and airstyle should come together!

Postby flying_dutchman » Fri Jan 24, 2014 7:08 pm

Eey guys just had an idea

Wouldn't it be cool to see newschool and oldschool combined.
Like doing unhooked board offs and one footers.
Some times you see the pros doing grabs, but!!!!
Some of them know how to do one handed handle passes really well, like Kevin Langeree
I would like to see some people doing like unhooked board offs with handle passes.
And like unhooked kiteloops with boardoff and one footers.

Wouldnt that be cool?
Or what?

I won't be able to do it yet but just thought about you know.

there are some doing unhooked boardoffs...but style is something else then!

Few tricks can look nice, but the majority not.

Better to have events that combines the disciplines with two riders...like the team event in Austria...this way you have specialized unhooked and hooked riders...

Offcourse it could not become a new style.

It would be just freestyle.

But it should grow.

A lot of of the new guys are popping hard and jumping big.
It could look stylish with some effort, and maybe if they they use kites like the Evo or bandits wich are more allround.
