  • Hi. Thanks for the videos. What lines length do you recommend for these tricks? Greetings from Brazil.

  • @ruymfp I use 25 or 30 meter lines. I guess somewhere between 20 to 40 would be normal.

  • "As the kite is heading for the flare, add tension to the lower line", I don`t see that u gave any tension after you popped upper wing, and slacked lower wing..I just see u tension 2 lines when kite is out of a flare...Is there any tension of lower or higher wing after kite entered a flare?

  • @DirtyThing20 There is a small input on the lower wing. It's almost just the kite taking up the slack, take a look at the Half axel 1-7 video and notice the number 6 flashing at my left arm as I give the input.

  • @DPmama74 Thanks dude, what happens if u don`t do 6 small input?

  • @DirtyThing20 Can't really tell... I've always used this input. I think it makes the trick look sharper and it gives a nice rythm to the inputs for the cascade... lift right wing, half axle right wing, lift left wing, half axle wing and so on.

  • @DirtyThing20 I have no idea. The bridle is set to low wind and I never adjust it. The wind is quite low, 3 m/s i think.

  • What is the attack angle of your kite?...Seems wind is very low here..
