Kitesurfing Technique
Beach Bounce Transition
This is a beautifully fun move in its own right, and the first step to a stylish press. You’ve likely seen a picture or a clip of someone doing this, either on soft sand or far less sensibly on a solid object! It’s a great one to add to your armoury and if you choose the right time and spot...
Two Foot Beach Start
Some time back we took you through a beach start method where you anchor the board by putting one foot in the front strap to stop it misbehaving and running off whilst you fly the kite. As effective a method as that may be, the launch can often be preceded by a game of hop scotch as you pogo around...
Pop Nose Grab Hooked-In
The nose grab is an absolute classic popped trick. It’s guaranteed to get you buzzing and makes for a proper money shot in your holiday snaps. We’re keeping things sensible and looking at the hooked in variant. This type of low altitude move is all about adding some style and as well as working deliciously in flat water, it’s just...

Hand Wash
Oddly enough it’s possible that you already know how to back roll hand wash, maybe even front roll hand wash, but chances are you’ve not even considered a simple, no frills approach to the cleanest of moves. This seems to be a popular photo choice at the moment, and as there’s nothing more in than being en mode, lets get...
Front Loop From Toeside
The front loop from toe side is an extra bit of fun for anyone who fancies themselves as proficient on their toes. It’s a very achievable move and can lead into a plethora of other tricks and combos, both hooked and unhooked, so a must have for any budding crowd pleasers amongst you. It goes without saying that apart from...
Board Behind Waterstart
Stylish and practical, definitely two words that fit this down to a T. Stylish because what better way can there be to regain your pride after a wipe-out, other than just boosting back up into the air from which you fell and scooting gracefully off. Practical as most of us spend a lot of time getting back on the board...
Indy Pop to Toeside
This one shouldn’t take to long to master as it is really just a way of adding some extra style points to something you can already do, that is of course assuming that you can pop to toe side without a moments thought. Realistically though to make the grab, especially after the indulgences of Christmas, it’s more about polishing your...
Indy Pop to Blind
If you’re keen on style there is no simpler way to ooze some steeze than add a grab. And as we have often said it’s a great way to freshen up and reignite your passion for a move that you already have in the bag - so it’ll not only look the puppy’s but also feel da bomb! Here we...
BLT to Blind
We absolutely love this one! A veritably fun little treat and an absolute banger of a cheeky move. Conjuring this out of the hat when turning low level next to the beach should get you a few laughs and plenty of appreciative whistles, smiles all round. Basic requirements are a back roll transition and some form of blind. It’s not...
