Le Morne: The Beating Heart of Mauritius

Few kiteboarding destinations can offer as much variety in such a spectacular setting as Le Morne. Inside the lagoon, beginners and freeriders have acres of turquoise water to explore, while beyond the reef, Little Reef, Manawa, and the legendary One Eye provide a natural progression into some of the finest wave riding on the planet. We take a closer look at what makes this corner of Mauritius so special, and why, after countless visits, it remains one of our favourite places to kite.

Yup, the name gives it away, and if you’ve done your homework from the last issue, you’ll be ready and primed. We’ll keep this one pretty brief, as it is an extension of the back loop from toeside, using the kite to jump, from last time, so if you need reminding of the A-B please read the last one. If...

Inverted Grabbed Front Loop

Funnily enough some of the most pleasant to watch and pleasing on the eye kiters are not necessarily the most radical, but simply the most stylish. Obviously there are the golden few who combine both and have as a result forged a decent career out of kitesurfing. So with that in mind here’s another way of adding the mustard onto...

Coming around to toe side is effectively adding an extra 180˚, hence the original old school name of any such transition being a 540....
