Yeah nice slight weight on the left hand to pop you gently through the back while keeping the kite aloft.
Im still newish to kiting in surf, and often found fairly minor wipeouts resulting in quite a hold down. It was only after strapping a GoPro to the strings and reviewing the footage I found myself being gently dragged along underwater in the direction of the whitewater, thus keeping me down for longer…..
See from the 6 minute mark….
Thanks Guys!!
@Turtlehunter, for sure it is safer to kite without a leggie, but this wave has dry reef in front of it. Plus I fall off alot ;-)
@Glug, I was always try fall into the wave, not in front of it possible and pull LEFT asap! This is the eject button.
If you fall into the white water and don't pull LEFT you get worked a lot more.
