360 SHOVE102 STRAPLESS MOVES360 Shove it1.Like any jump, whether it’s strapped orstrapless, to leave the water you must loadup the kite and board by setting a rail and edgingagainst the kite. This creates added tension in thelines that you will use to lift you off the water.2.You will start with slow to medium speed,just enough to finish the move with someforward momentum to ride away. If possible, timeyour take off with a ‘kicker’ such as a small waveor chop to help you initiate your jump.3.As you leave the water, use your toe pressureto angle the bottom of the board intothe wind. The board will push back against thebottom of your feet and you can use this resistanceto initiate the spin of the board.4.The board is spun by using your back footto kick the tail of the board into the wind.The speed at which you spin the board dependson the height and distance of the jump. Be carefulnot to spin the board too fast or too slow; toofast, it will over rotate and too slow, it will underrotate. Rather than stopping the rotation withyour feet, you will aim to have the tail of the boardhit the water to stop the rotation of the board.5.If everything lines up correctly the fins willcatch the water and stop the board fromrotating with the nose pointing in the right directionand your feet are on track to connect withyour board. Keep your eyes on your landing andland with your knees bent to absorb the impact.
IT BY REO STEVENSTIPS1.Don’t wear a surf leash because the possibilityof your board “bouncing back” can createa very dangerous situation.2.Watch for the possibility of your board landingfins up. To avoid injuries from sharpfins, watch the rotation of the board and if you’relanding fins up, then tuck you feet up and continueto send the kite in the opposite direction toget away from your board.
