Re: Front or back heli loops for soft landings after jump?

Its simple: You need to do the loop above your head. 1. If during the jump the kite is behind you, you need to 'fix' it with downloop (we want making the loop above our head). 2. If during the jump the kite is infront of you, you need to fix it with kiteloop. In this case if you make a downloop, the...

Re: Help! Switchblade 2017 vs Evo 2017

I had a 2015 10m SB and 2016 12m SB last year and now fly 2016 EVOs. Build and quality I would say is equal, both are very good.

Re: no Pain no Gain: How not to kiteloop, when low is too low.

But what about backroll without transition? - the kite stay at 45 during all the trick? - Should I take the kite to 12 and make the backroll and than return the kite to 45 at the same surfing direction? All depends on...

Hello surfers, need some help before upgrading. Im surfing with Evo 10m 2016. Im doing freeride and started to do some oldschool tricks (slides..backroll..) and some begginers unhooked like raley. My Evo is fine and now I want to upgrade and have 2 choices- Evo 2017 or SWitchblade 2017 size 10. Wich...
