Favorite tricks.

Post by Trav »

What is your favorite tricks or air or whatever. Both what you can do and what you can watch and dream about.

Favorite Can Do: Relaunch (ya well I'm still new so it's cool to me.)
Favorite watch/wish I could: Darkslide (Nothing to me beats a long low smooth darkslide.)

Good choices Trav.

My favourite may be the darkslide as well, although my success rate is still only about 10% and there's a lot to be desired still in terms of style points.

Favorite trick!

I want to learn the God Walk or stick a nice Kiteloop. My favorite landable trick atm is a backroll, just working on my height now. I remember my favorite trick was landing at the same beach I took off from... :oops: So glad those days are (mostly) gone! Forever Kook!

The scissor trick is definitively my favorite trick to do, been a while since I did it, should re do it more often.

The trick I would like to see most is the bird trick done by like 10-15 people in a busy area, they would do that trick repetively for like 10-15 minutes. This would be the most beautiful thing ever and would propel this sport even more.

Whats that Teabag? My favorite trick to watch is any trick from Teabag where you can clearly see his flippers dangling from his harness...;)

I was quite amazed this weekend watch Ian throw down some clean backrolls and kiteloops on the flysurfer.
