Kite surfing Movie - Crystal lines part 1

yewwww, nice!!!
frothing on your sunset session.


ummm, tip though... When you use the pole mount, invert the camera upside down. The weight of the camera will then act as a counter balance and give you smoother footage. Give that a go!

and what do you use for the edit. FCPX has a great stabilisation tool. Works wonders if there is just a little bit of shake in footage.


LF still make kites???

nice edit man. Looks like good times! Good choice of track too

This. And actually bending the pole in a slight downward curve instead of leaving it straight will also help a lot.

@Glendog incase you care the real names of the tricks you are talking about are:
Blind Judge 3 = Backside 313
S-bend 3 = Heart-attack (aka Blind S-mobe)
Raley to wrapped = 313 (frontside is a given if not mentioned)

I know lots of people think I'm being pedantic but I think giving people the option to learn the correct names is a good idea as lots of people just don't know (or read stuff like this and solidify the already wrong ideas they have).

Feedback for vid:
Next vid try using no slo-mo (or at the least a very small amount), this video was hard to watch because of it. On the other hand it's good to see some more crew starting to kite up there, so keep it up!

haha, it's all good man I'm not trying to shoot you down, just deliver some info.

Here's a good thing to learn, the term "wrapped" is used as an expression for how you can be wrapped in the rope (usually before take off) and lets you do tricks without passing the bar. It is never an expression that finds itself into the end of a trick name. Trick names are almost exclusively based on the rotation of the trick and not whether you pass the bar in the air or on the water. So to answer your questions:

Back to wrapped = Backmobe (as a backroll and a frontside 3 = a backmobe)
Back to blind with airpass = Back to blind
Bendy blind with airpass = S=bend to blind

If you really consider the "airpass" to be a note worthy add on to your trick just tack "with an airpass" onto whatever trick it is. In my opinion it doesn't add anything to a trick, thus I'm not concerned with it, I'm only concerned with how good the trick itself is done.
