Once you're backrolling and transitioning, it's time to bring those two together and start having some fun changing direction. Use the kite to take your weight whilst you do a nice spin before riding away in the other direction. For added steez have the kite a bit higher, do a nice slow spin and then stomp the landing.
Trick Steps
1
Ride in at a cruising pace with the kite higher than usual
2
Pop a backroll, and as you look over your front shoulder + push off, send the like to 12
3
Pull your knees in to speed up the rotation, and extent out to slow down.
4
As you complete the rotation, steer the kite down in the direction that you wish to ride
5
Land with the board pointed downwind and the kite powered so that you can plane away
6
Ride away like a boss!
7
Think about throwing in a hand drag or a loop once you're confident!
