Progression Skills

Loops

Learning to loop builds steering control, timing, power management, and commitment. Start in very light wind — almost too light to ride — and practice without the board, then gradually progress to light-wind downloop transitions. This builds the foundation for more advanced tricks, but looping can also be a practical skill for keeping the kite moving and helping you get back to shore if the wind starts to drop.
