Air style: Backroll
Posted: Thu Jun 29, 2017 1:23 pm
Hey guys,
A question about the backroll. I came back two weeks ago from Dakhla where I was practicing backroll, or what I thought were backrolls. I was practicing steering the kite onto 12 whilst edging, and then using my head and shoulder to rotate. Worked well, though I from what I've interpreted in Toby's video, a backroll need not be that complicated. Is it a matter then of just gaining speed and keeping the kite in one position whilst gaining air without edging? Thanks!
