Pendulum jumps

From KiteWiki

Jump to: navigation, search

Pendulum jumps can be done whilst flying static and flying traction.

I recommend trying static before using your buggy or your board, because you need to grasp the concept first.

Method

Put your kite to the zenith

Now decide which way you want to run (left or right)

What ever direction you decide run upwind that way, and bring your kite around to face the same direction you are running.

As you run make sure your kite is about half way down the wind window

Then when you feel the kite at its full strength, turn the kite to the opposite dirrection whilst continueing to run

And when you turn the kite around bring it to the top of the wind window
