When doing a back hand heli loop, what's the minimum height off the water to initiate it. I keep getting dropped on my arse.

[@MACkiteboarding]

Ohhhh-me too. 😜 Hey, Blake-can you help us out with this one? -Aaron

[@shaunbennett5510]

Hi Jason! You can do it from a pretty low hight and it's OK to land before the loop is even finished. Just make sure you iniate the loop just a tad off of 12 so it comes across the top of the window. And make sure to sheet in all the way to keep the loop tight for the least amount of power and land down wind!

[@shaunbennett5510]

If you are getting dropped make sure you keep the kite above you till the last second or so. 5 feet off the water is a good time to crank it.

[@jasonwood4054]

@@shaunbennett5510 I think my issue is I’m not pulling hard enough with the back hand so the kite isn’t making it all the way around.

[@jasonwood4054]

@@shaunbennett5510 figured it out yesterday. I was letting the bar out too much. I tried letting the bar out slowly to maintain the first then pulled hard and it floated me into the landing. Smooth landing 2/3 tries. The third try I got tea bagged.
