  • The day I try the double loop for the first time! scary trick for sur.
    Try it with the amazing Cabrinha Drifter 5m. First kite to triple loop ever, so it should be a good choice!
    5m in around 35knts. Got many advice from advance riders and pros before this session:
    -Use a small and fast kite
    -Go big
    -2 options: turn the 2 loops in one move, or split the 2 loops with a very short delay between them. I took the first option, which is the basic way to do it. But I am sur the second option is also very good if you are pretty high to be catch very well after the second loop and don't put the kite very low.
    The key point is to have enough height to pull the 2 loops and to know if the kite will catch you or not pretty soon to leave the board as I did in the first attempt.
    Luckly the second attempt was very clean and perfect! Was super stocked!
    But the third attempt few days later was not that good!!
    My main issue is to take enough height with a 5m...
    Crashs are pretty bad as you bounce in the water after the first impact... not really fun. Take care, this is a dangerous trick.
