Win a Ride Engine Air Box Electric Pump this issue in our FREE subscriber prize draw.
There is something profoundly satisfying in kicking buckets of spray, regardless of sports. Whether it be fanning deep powder on a mountain, annihilating the lip of a wave, chucking dirt on a bike or walling a slalom ski around a buoy, the inner kid in all of us can’t resist it and the ensuing look back to check, regardless of how mind-blowingly awesome it felt. Pushing against water, generating your prism, bending light, making rainbows, or simply soaking someone on the beach – the fun is ours. Who doesn’t get excited at the thought?
Spray turns are a great way to boost your kiting vibe and absolutely rock, whether you’re on a twin tip or pushing against foam on a surfboard. The foundation of this move is your toe-to-heel carve, so you need to be comfy with it. If you are, we can polish it, tweak it, and shape it into something that any joy-loving kiter can appreciate.
To crack this, we will look at what the kite will be doing and what you’ll do to make this happen. We’ll ponder how you get your board to carve and how you can achieve maximum super-soaker status. And we’ll focus on timing so that everything lines up and you can exit still moving with the broadest of grins plastered all over your face.
