Kiteloop training with Shaun Bennett.

Enjoyed this video thanks! Which line lenght the riders on the pivot use 22m or 24m?

Thank you soo much 💖💖💖

Hello, Do you ever do a loop with the soul when doing a dark slide or hand drag transition? I have a soul 15, and think it is to slow for that. Thank you!

so confused. some say kiteloop is pulling on back hand, others on front hand. what is it?

Nice video guys. 👍

the most important thing is you have to have a great pop. if you don't pop hard enough you'll go downwind to much and there will be a lot of slack in the lines after you looped the kite which results into the kite not catching you in time and your knees will have to take on for the team

thank you for tips, guys!

Great tips,, great video,, thx

Where was this filmed?

Best tip I have is when down looping with your right hand after kite looping land with your left leg forward and vise versa. This results in a much easier and stable landing especially at high speed :)

Тут хорошие советы, всё по делу. Но мне помогло решиться на первые кайт-лупы простое подводящее упражнение - делаем хороший стабильный вертиккльный транзишн, затем к нему потихоньку добавляем луп. Сперва сразу после приземления, потом в момент касания с водой. И так потихоньку привыкаем. Через некоторое время становится не страшно и можно попробовать сделать луп, на высоте примерно метра два. Главное - хорошенько и резко перекосить планку, практически достигнув самой верхней точки.

Love the tutorials! Great fan. Now can someone elaborate EXACTLY when to start the kiteloop? Like vertically when you are gaining hight? Or when you stop ascending or when you start coming down? And what is the best kite position window wise to start the loop? at 12? 1? 10? Thank you! Great work! Keep it up!

best learnig with 22m line or 24?

Visiting hood river from Australia. Hopefully going to nail looping on this trip 👌

Great vid!! Can't wait to nail my first back loop!!

Great Introduction to Kite Loops. One thing to mention is once you have committed to Fish Poling the Bar for the Kite Loop you cannot 'bail" at that point or you will get slammed. Better, Safer to continue with the Loop ;)

Awesome vid, but these aren’t mega loops.

Also good to note when to pull the loop, when starting pause at the apex for a softer loop, then once more confident do it just before the apex for a more horizontal pull and the kite will also recover quicker

cool video , you should mention kite line lengths as well

Great instructional video Laurie and Yuri! I gotta start to learn some loops!

Just landed my first foiling mega loop this weekend AV 24 knots with the 6m hawk

You should have mentioned not to use a seat harness for kitelooping as due to the pull coming from your center of mass if you spin sideways when the loop yanks you gravity doesn’t bring you back vertical.

The most important part of looping is to push the bar out once the kite has completed the loop, this makes sure the kite accelerates above you so you can loop to catch you as you land.

Always start trying them in butter flat water, no worries about getting the take off wrong. You will save yourself lots of time and pain. And the #1 most important tip nobody ever told me is to SHEET OUT after the loop, literally push the bar away from you as far as you can and that kite will shoot over your head and catch you for a nice smooth landing (or crash).

Well... I'm tempted! Are you going to try too Laurie? 😁

Soon I will

Wooow 🥰🥰🥰 Love Charles- Émile 😉😉🤪😘😘 Super conseils!

i think im going to attempt it every time before i go.. and then i get on the water and im like eh is it really worth it lol. i need to start with heli loop landings possibly

Where was this filmed? Looks like a fantastic spot.

i´m looping my 15m Soul... heli loops are fun with it..endless hangtime guaranteed

Nice Video! Regarding jump height and safety of the loop there are some weird things mentioned in this video, a kiteloop can be performed at 2/3 meters of height and still be catching you more than enough for a smooth landing. It’s just important that the take off is into the wind and not just with the wind.

Hi Laurie, Yuri and team, thanks for the great jump footage, tips and especially will remember the part of looking back. With that said I am happy to stay with non-kite-loop jumps and kite loops in transitions & downwind. Maybe I will get there but already just thrilled to get out on the water and ride the wind 😊.

I can only do small backrolls with loops. Up to 2-3m high maybe. When I'm facing the kite and don't do the roll I always get out of balance but with a backroll it just feels natural no matter how early I do the loop.

Great video! Lots of excellent info!

Starting with deadloops as soon as it hits 20 kts down here ahhaha. Thanks for the video Yuri and Laurie :) I’m stoked. Gonna talk to James too. Body positioning tip was what I was looking for

Thanks for the great tutorials Lori !
