Very TOP!!! WOOOOHOOO... Thanks Steven. I'm your fan...
Thanks man! Happy you like it so much 🤗
Excellent and focusing exactly on the issues I've been having (In flight one handed kite control). First boardoff tutorial I see emphasizing the one hand steering details. 👍
Thanks for the great feedback! Super happy that you enjoy the tutorial video!
Keep on practising the kite control in the air with one hand and I'm sure you'll have the trick steady very soon!
Good busy Steven. Dit zijn tutorials. Follow the SA masterclass, bam!
Lekker kerel! Leuk om te horen, zal zorgen dat er elke week weer een video uit rolt.
Chille video’s man
Bedankt!
Awesome explanation 🎉
Thank you 🙂
This board is such a beauty🔥
It's my favorite! Nothing beats a black carbon board in my opinion
@@stevenakkersdijk thats true!! I'm riding the tantrum V but the new one is even more awesome 👍
I find black boards not that handy because when I loose my board mid air its hard to find 😅
OOooo Ahhhh I've been wanting that board ever since I started kiting. Maybe this year...
They're magic in my opinion. Did you ever manage to give it a try?
I have imperator 5 gold and 6. Probably get it in 140 for boots to add to my collection. Wondering where the 7 is.
Awesome Content!
Thanks so much! That's good to hear and motivates me to keep the videos coming.
@@stevenakkersdijk absolutely man. All very useful! The line length one was excellent too. Good luck in KOTA!
Great
Glad you like it!
Great inatructional thanks
Very welcome
Great Video and well explained! Thanks a lot!
Is it also possible to place the hand in the middle of the bar during pull up phase? Cause I find it quite hard to steer back the kite to 12 o clock with my backhand for take off if the powerlines are already between index and middle finger.
It would also be possible, but the nice thing about having the fron hand on the bar with the line between index and middle finger. Is that you will naturally steer the kite back in to the riding direction.
For your take off you should for sure keep the back hand on the bar so you can steer the kite just past 12, after which you let go with the back hand.
Great vid! Please can you do a vid on how to control the kite (rescue/heliloops) to land smooth when jumping big 🙏
I have it on the to do list. Not exactly sure when I'll be able to produce it though.
Great! Look forward to it when you get time. Nobody has done a decent video yet which talks through what you do with the bar/kite during the jump and landing. Talking through your kite control during footage of a KOTA 2020 jump would be amazing. I reckon you will make an awesome video because you make the instructions so clear to follow. 👊🤙
H, Steven, i really enjoyed every SA classes! Can you please teach us how to improve edge and the pop? Including the stances from speeding to take off? Really love the video u made, Keep going bro! Your royal fans from far east! China!
Great suggestion! I'll add it to the list!
@@stevenakkersdijk salute!!
Steven could u please do a detailed tutorial on how to launch a big jump (flat water )
I'll put it on my list!
Great vid! Thanks for posting. I’m just starting to land my board-off jumps with my strapless surfboard. I can only do it in light winds with a kite loop just as I place the board under my feet for landing. With stronger winds and bigger jumps I’m having trouble controlling the kite with one hand and begin rotating as I come down to land. Any tips, like should I try to redirect the kite more forward after reaching the apex? I might also be initiating the kite loop too soon
Hey Reedy
It's hard to compare a strapless jump with a strapped jump. The kite steering and landing are completely different. If you follow the steps for this strapped boardoff, you will completely screw up on your strapless jump.
Can't really tell you what to do as I would need to see it. Maybe drop me a video on Instagram or Facebook and then I can give you the right tips!
Enjoy the ride!
Steven Akkersdijk thanks. I’ll try to video it in the next week
Awesome video. Not related to this video, I'm having problems with kite loops, I have done a few where the kite catches me and everything goes OK, but I'm scared of trying them in stronger winds and therefore higher jumps, I always have that fear of the kite not catching me. Do you have any advice.
Thanks, keep up the good work, your videos are really awesome
Thanks man! Always good to hear that people are enjoying the videos.
I'm actually wanting to bring out a kiteloop video in the upcoming time, but not sure when I'll manage with Red Bull King of the Air coming up.
The main trick is to pull hard with the steering. So that means your bar should be al the way down and your bar cranked to at least 45 degrees.
This should be enough to let the kite go around quick and catch you again.
Hope that helps! Enjoy your next sessions
@@stevenakkersdijk OK, thanks. What do you think, roughly, is the minimum jump height for the kite to catch you?
zou je een tutorial willen maken over de kiteloop late backroll?
Staat ook niks van op UA-cam.
Ik zal er mee bezig gaan. Kan echter nog wel heel even duren.
what is the intro music?! love it
I got the song from epidemicsounds. It's called: Something Crazy - Particle house ft. Ed Mills
Also don't you hurt your finger when you steer your kite and bar with your fingers between the lines?
In the beginning it can be a little bit painfull. This also depends on the powerline you have (plastic or rope)
After a while you get more and more used to it and it doesn't hurt any more.
@@stevenakkersdijk I got a rope and not plastic. Rope definitely can get you bleeding :/ Do you have a technique not to bleed apart from putting gloves on lol
@@stephdenis9744 :') Just build some callus mate.. little bit of blood on the finger never killed anyone
Dangerous miss haps when these people collide out there it's Abit challenging to know who's going where
Sometimes it does feel like riding in a real life Tetris game. Especially main season in Capetown.
Is your board a 149?!?! I am assuming its actually an 139cm hahah
It's a Carved Tantrum Custom 139 x 41,5
My Dutch accent is just getting in the way there ;-)
Easy for you to say with your 0.0004kg board.
I'm flattered that you think Carved boards are that light. To be fair a light board comes with it's own problems (wants to fly away all the time)
Personally I ride with a super stiff custom Carved which makes it a lot heavier, so I'm pretty much on par with other carbon boards on the market 😉
