Hey people.
When steering one handed (trainer kite).. Is there a way/techique/trick or whatever to steering away from you? What i mean is, say your flying with your right hand. When steering right i use my thumb to get leverage and push the bar right.. BUT, when trying to steer left it seems really awkward because theres nothin to use as leverage. I end up twisting my wrist into some crazy positions and finding it hard to push the bar left.. Am i missing something hear?
Thanks..
I'd guess you hold your elbow up so it is parallel with your wrist out in front of you and use your elbow to make the angle change.
never really though about it, but it is easier when you have the centre line running through the bar
no, you have a thumb which makes that happen. It's called being a human or monkey, what ever you like.
When going for the left try using more elbow and keep that limp wrist toight.
toight eh, yea bro rock solid!
on a hybrid you get some speed and depower it and slacken off you right hand to force it left.
trainer and proper kites are different
on a trainer get your hand more in the middle of the bar.
Hmmmn, why bother going to all that effort to fly a trainer kite one handed? Its doesn't really matter! Sounds like you need to get yourself onto the real thing dude and stop overanalysing the problem.
