I was just as scared as I was during my very first kiteloop back then 😅

[@jwgeut]

Love it! No excuses anymore to start doing kiteloops on my 11m..

[@fysalides1]

Great video Bend..Enjoy Greece!!!

[@sauce25]

this is awesome to see for those of us stuck riding 12m + kites. It's so easy to see guys on youtube pull stuff on 7m kites, but this is incredibly helpful if you don't live somewhere that can take such a small kite! Would love to see more.

[@tilmanwimmer4740]

Thank you, Ben, for this helpful video. Good to see, that even for an experienced kiteboarder, kite-loops aren't necessarily a given thing on big kites. Also, I find it very interesting, to hear you mention that only a couple of years ago this kund of loop seemed very unlikely to even think of with a kite of that size. I wasn't aware, that kite agility has evolved so much in only a few years of time. Always appreciate your quality and joyful videos, thank you!

13,5 er GTS 6 ist auch gut loopbar :) starkes Video wie immer !👌🏼

Ich hab den 15er Juice Dlab auf 8m auch schon durchgezogen. Muss man halt echt voll comitten!

Mr smooth, very nice

[@rutgerdezeeuw]

I looped 16 meters 30 years ago

[@TKM11370]

of course you did. We all did.

[@pavelkluchnic9401]

День добрый! Супер! Успеха!

Hi Ben, sehr cool! Geht das auch mit dem XR 13.5? Wollte diesen Sommer mal mit dem Loopen anfangen. Zuerst natürlich mit dem 10er und 12er. Viele Grüsse und bis bald mal wieder in Silva (grüner Helm, schwarzer Core)

[@romanroschi3611]

Ich denke mit dem XR8 wird das sehr schwierig, der neue Nexus looped schon ganz anders und schneller.

[@kitingholger9826]

Nice one👍🏼 - Did any of the Core team riders loop an XR 13,5?

[@BenBeholzVlogs]

Good question 🤔

[@VK-pl1nd]

crazy! i'm still scared to loop 9m orbit =)))

Very Nice! Where is this spot?

[@BenBeholzVlogs]

That‘s in greece (Raches)

[@supermeiki]

Super Ben…..danke……linelenght on bar ?

[@BenBeholzVlogs]

It was 24m

[@olegta4581]

what line length did you use? and recommendations on the length of the lines?

[@BenBeholzVlogs]

I used 24m

[@erbartlett]

Is there a trick to riding the Nexus coming from XRs? I always feel like I'm underpowered when I'm riding the same size. I love how much faster it is... but I'm a heavy guy and I feel like I'm constantly pumping the nexus to keep going.

[@BenBeholzVlogs]

That‘s true, the Nexus has less „power“ on it‘s own. With the Nexus the power comes from the „right“ steering

[@erbartlett]

@@BenBeholzVlogsany tips on how to get that power? I feel like I’m cranking on it and can’t get enough

[@heartelectric]

👍😀

[@DS911T]

Would you say Nexus 4 12m loops better than a GTS 6 12m?

[@BenBeholzVlogs]

In general I would say the Nexus

[@DS911T]

@@BenBeholzVlogs that’s just crazy

Fastest kite setup Wave? Not freestyle?

[@randomhuman8684]

Frage mich in dem Kontext, ob ich zum üben von kiteloops meine Nexus 3 (10er und 8er) auf Wave stellen sollte.

[@giorgio4660]

Wave is faster, freestyle is slower as in wave you want a faster kite and while unhooked you want a kite that doesnt move.

[@randomhuman8684]

@@giorgio4660 Yes completely agree. What is the best for kiteloops ? Ben is doing kiteloops in freestyle setting as far as I know.

[@giorgio4660]

@@randomhuman8684 kite in wave settings will be faster while in freestyle will be gruntier…. It’s personal preference.

[@robertasbenediktavicius1059]

@@giorgio4660 i tested both and my feel that wave setting was slower than freestyle. And kite wing in freestyle faster shape.

Du hast einen Spot in Montenegro verlinkt 🤔

[@BenBeholzVlogs]

Danke dir, jetzt nicht mehr :)

[@TeAsEaR1]

That's why you didn't want to sell that kite to me 😢
