Local Beach: Playa Malvin in downtown Montevideo.
Favorite Beaches: We are blessed with some great beaches here in Uruguay and, on occasion, some pretty epic conditions as well.
I enjoy kiteboarding anywhere I can in Uruguay be that in Montevideo, or at one of the many beaches, rivers or Laguna's further outside the city.
I've also been lucky enough to kite the North Coast of Brasil, Cabarete and Paracas in Peru.
Style: With a smile on my face
Gear: We have a great Ozone dealer here in Montevideo who gives excellent customer service, kite repairs and payment plans. So, of course I have a bunch of Ozone Kites. 3 Edges of different sizes and an Enduro. My board is also Ozone.

Kite Loop Progression Session

Postby Kiteboarding Uruguay » Thu Oct 14, 2021 2:03 am

Hey there KiteForum friends,

Here is a really short (a touch over a minute) video of my friend and I working on steadily progressing our kiteloops.

Neither of us are going huge just yet but we are both able to land with smooth downloops.

Any advice on how to progress beyond this point would be very gratefully accepted.

Cheers,

Nick

1. Go bigger.
2. Keep the bar all the way in to get the kite around faster with less power. The kite is coming low(er) with the bar out, which is good for progression, but too low for the 2m jumps you're doing.
3. Go bigger.
