1st Kite Punks
Today was the last day of the kitepunks, the wind came in pretty good, I was on a 13m with boots pretty powered at times.
The obstacles were fun, I got a few good moves over the Fun box but I enjoyed the wall ride the most, I got a 720 over that and had fun just styling it out back-side with half the board off the top.
The 720 won me best trick and I also came away with a 1st overall. Thats 3 times in a row so pretty stoked with that.
Tomorrow we will just free ride then I’m back to England for Flexifoil to tour the UK.
i’ve been using the Hadlow pro from S2AS in folkstone on demo. awsome kite for freestyle i’ve ordered a 7 and 11, use to ride slingy fules.
i did find it can be hard to relunch do you ever have a problem with it?
Wow Aaron thats great!
I also love my hadlow pro but like the guy above me i have problems relaunching it. You always get it back in the air so fast in your videos! Any tips?
good Job Aaron….u are also the slider/kicker king!
pull on the back lines…was riding with rob snuggs who rides them…just grab just above the float on 1 side…the kite just whips up…hope it helps
Great work Aaron!
We stumbled on the event by accident. I noticed the park out on the water so we parked our van up and had a look around, next thing we know there is a kite comp going on! Sweet
yeah its fine doing that if the kite is straight down wind and the canopy is open. But i find if it comes down in the edge of the window the leading edge bladder will fold the wing tip is a bitch to get out the water.
Congrats Aaron and for anyone out there that can’t view the poster Aaron will be @ Edgeriders in Ipswich tomorrow(20th May) from 10am to midday… Come along and meet the champ face to face.
Rock on Aaron!!
