hey guys how do u do kung-fu? i looked for some videos but couldnt find any ones to teach me how to do it?
it looks fricken mad lol
Well, Usually they have classes at your local community centre.... Dunno why you thought you could learn how to do it on a kiting forum. lol.
hi
try this......do a normal jump, a big one, un hooked of course and over send the kite past 12.let go of one arm and holed the kite till you are level with it.
lol i havent worked out the landing yet............
^^^How does that teach you kung-fu?... Are you meant to hit your head real hard and forget you dont know how to do it or something?
He's talking about a real old school trick called a kung fu... from around 2003-2005
Involved sending the kite waaaaay back when you jump, so you swing out to the side like a kung-fu flying kick.
You really need a small C kite to do it - Bow kites just don't work for stuff like this
you pussies you dont send it to 12 then past. u ride in as fast and hot as u can. then send ur kite directly backwaRDS in an attempt to go so far back in time that you'll find out where dinosaurs came from. then when ur kite is that far back in time and u get bored you let go of one hand and let it float out to lunch for a nice meal and land.
wicked feeling trick IMO probably my only dangle trick in my dangling repatuare (spelling?) and yes yes it is a dangle trick just like " mega loops "
Easy? Dick tricks are not easy learn... generals, tin mans, pullups, wakestyle in straps... they will all take you at least a day or two to learn.
yer a day or two if u learn as quick as SIR ROWDY maybe... for all the average joes like myself pull ups and Generals took me about 2 months each to learn
Lou is still the king!
Youtube reckons this is how to do a kung fu air...
F-16's were cool back when Bertrand and Lou etc. were doing them, now every man and his dog are claiming hooked in lunch time circle work are F-16's. Kung-fu was just the lyrics of the song on Ten4 when lou did it... Lou's "kung-Fu" was cool. Now every Tom, Dick and Harry are unhooking sending it back to mid-day- breifly taking a hand off then dangling back down to safety.
Point being that there is a lot of tricks out there that people claim such as S-bends, F-16's, Kung- Fu's etc. which really don't fulfill the criteria.
I am yet to see someone do a proper kung-fu mainly because
1.) They are a short line trick
2.) You need a decent ammount of wind with a slow turning kite (non-existant)
3.) Kiteboarders are pussies
