Best video on transitions! Thank you Antony. I made the first mistake, steering the kite to 12 too early. Tried to summarize your tips:
Transition in 3 steps:
1) Edge upwind and push the bar out. DO NOT move the kite to 12 yet!
2) Pull bar slightly and shift your weight to your back leg BEFORE you stop. Move the kite to the other side.
3) Follow the kite (ride downwind the first meters). Only then, move upwind.
dude i watched all videos on kiteboarding transitions, but this one actually helped me to find my pitfalls! i was able to make all my transitions today thanks to this video, props to you man!!!
oh man thank you so much! glad it could help!
My daughter and I took lessons from Anthony today. He is a great instructor. Knowledgeable, patient. We highly recommend.
Loved working with you guys! Excited to get you back out for some riding
Have you been spying on me? Those are EXACTLY the mistakes I keep making! Thanks for the helpful advice.
Nice! Super clear, as always. By the way, love that flat water!
The best video I have watch about typical mistakes! Keep going!
Perfect and calm demonstration. Very much appreciated, greetings from Germany
My transitions are not always clean.... sometimes okay, sometimes not, without knowing exactly "why"....... after watching your video, it slaps me immediately : point #1 for me !!
I move the kite up to 12 and sheet-out the bar, "then", too late, try so stop by edging upwind.... with the kite already too high ! (points #2 and #3 are good for me).
So many thanks for this video, will try to correct me next session ! 👌✌
thank you for the nice comment and for watching! really appreciate you
@@KiteboardingStPetersburg A nice session this weekend on a small shallow water spot, perfect for working transitions. I did apply your tips, and I finally succeed in every transition I made ! I was so happy. Many thanks for your video ✌✌
I was taught to steer to 12 before transitioning but now I understand why that’s only working every so often. Thanks for the tip
good one! thats a common one I hear about
Great video. Good mistakes explanations with, which is important, examples.
Thank you Alex!
From Argentina! Antony, nice explanation. I'm still do not find a tutorial of how to land a jump. There are many videos of how to jump better, edging, line tension, pop. Ok with that, but for me and I guess for many beginners and intermediate kiters, the problem is HOW TO LAND A JUMP. That precise moment deserves a tutorial video, in my opinion. Please consider it.
Great idea! I like this one a lot and will work on one
Great Video! Thanks a lot. For me as a beginner. Mistake #1: Send kite to 12 before you stop. Well... How else do you stop other than sitting down or sending kite to 12?
Hold your edge and push the control bar out.. you'll stop if you keep the bar out
@@KiteboardingStPetersburg thank you so much! You know how to nail the statements that make a difference.
Great - instructional videos are always what we look out for, whatever level, as we all wish to improve and refine our skills. There aren’t enough new help videos being made anymore so this is really appreciated. 👍🪂
