How To Control GUSTY WIND

[@BenBeholzShorts]

Should we make sunday the new monday ? 🤔

[@uctonus2998]

Please

[@uctonus2998]

I think you should do a downwinder for a video. That would be crazy

[@samuelsulzle5952]

YES PLEASE!!!

For unhooked freestyle in gusty wind, I've been using a flat board to glide more in the lulls. Is this correct or should I use my freestyle board with a larger kite? I've been using the smallest kite possible and timing with the gusts rather than a larger kite and doing tricks in the lulls. Any tips? This video is very valuable to me. I've been depressed about all our gusty wind and wondering if the air style guys and wingers are right? So thank you!

Thats what i need

so cool, thanks for sharing :)

Geiles Video Ben🔥 Super Tipps. Ich muss mich manchmal richtig zwingen, die Sessions kürzer zu halten.

[@BenBeholzVlogs]

haha, kenn ich gut 🙈🤩🤘

[@todwart6072]

Great idea, Sunday is the new Monday.... But now in Greman. Warum machst du keine deutschsprachige Videos mehr Ben?! Find ich echt schade. Ich gaube das du auch mit deutschsprachigen Videos gleich viele Aufrufe der Videos hast. Mfg und nen schönen Sonntag allen... ✌️

[@BenBeholzVlogs]

Danke dir für dein Feedback. Was mich von den deutschen Videos immer etwas abhält ist dass ich nur auf Grund der Sprache einigen potentiellen Zuschauern Content vorenthalte. Für mich wäre es natürlich deutlich leichter auf Deutsch zu produzieren, aber es gibt ja mittlerweile überall auf der Welt Kitesurfer die sich auf meine wöchentlichen Videos freuen :)

Starkes Video wie immer 🔥

danke bro !

Super Video hab ich drauf gewartet👌

[@BenBeholzVlogs]

Freut mich 😁

[@gokucorrecaminos3711]

Interesting video Ben , also could be nice if It is possible, you could speak about the phisical features and others for kitebording , how important are there ?? For achive some tricks ?

[@BenBeholzVlogs]

Very interessting bro… What do you think about ? Workouts ?

[@gokucorrecaminos3711]

@@BenBeholzVlogs I think It is important for some tricks like board off to have good flexibility ,It be easyer to remove the board. Also have a good core and lumbar let you achieve more control in backroll or front roll manoubers. Quadriceps safe your knees in the landings. I would to know if you do some workout, or specific exerises ??? 😃

[@lassepetersengiacchino3770]

Great video 🤙 Just a quick question, newer hold back you pop ? Do you mean pop as you normally would do in stable wind ?

[@BenBeholzVlogs]

Hey bro, thank you :) Better even more... The pop is something you'll never understand 100%. With every new trick you have to adapt the pop. At least this is how it feels to me... Especially when the wind is gusty, it's important to gather all your energy and put it into the takeoff. Otherwise, you'll be pulled uncontrollably through the air by the kite.

[@lassepetersengiacchino3770]

@@BenBeholzVlogs Thanks for your answer. It makes sense ✌

[@cyberanswer]

@@BenBeholzVlogs That's gold ben. You'll be preventing a lot of injuries. Yeshua bless you.

[@BrokeFPV]

Thanks for the tips!!! Really appreciated!

[@BenBeholzVlogs]

Thank you bro ! Might be usefull at your homespots... ?

[@dpwild328]

Great video!!🤙🏼

[@BenBeholzVlogs]

thanks bro 🤙

[@alexcelli2545]

What does it means exactly "never hold back your pop"? And how to take off vertycally unhooked? Hooked-in helps a lot higher kite position and carve more into the wind, but unhooked with kite at 45 and approching the moves downwind how to do to achieve this? Thanks a lot again for contents and tips that NO ONE talk about!!

[@BenBeholzVlogs]

hey bro, Thank you very much for your feedback and your questions about the takeoff. When I say "never hold back your pop," I mean that you shouldn't let the uncomfortable and gusty wind affect you. Especially when the wind is gusty, it's important to gather all your energy and put it into the takeoff. Otherwise, you'll be pulled uncontrolled through the air by the kite. Unhooked you can achieve a vertical takeoff by popping extremely strong. Gather all your energy, edge and popp ... This propels you vertically into the air instead of downwind towards the kite... If you try this a few times, you'll learn that even when you're hooked-in, the kite position doesn't play such a big role... Was that helpful?

[@kkanicki]

never hold back your poop!!! I definitely agree!!!!

[@VaBene_92]

Yeah, I always pull the Adjuster very much in gusty Winds, thats key 😁

[@BenBeholzVlogs]

Haha, Reoli the key is to pull it always 100% 😂👌

[@donronaldo5454]

Hmmm... Ich denke an Fehmarn. 14 bis 35 Knoten (in Böen). Dazu mein 13.5 -er. Wie handele ich das denn? Speed? Dann hat es mich mit 50 kmh auf den Rüssel, im Kabbel...

[@RafCenterMyself]

Das ist natürlich schon extrem 😂 ich versuche immer den kite eher an die Böen anzupassen. Dann lieber ne Nummer kleiner und takeoffs mit Böen kombinieren. 10-15ktn Böen haben wir bei uns auch oft und das klappt ganz gut.

[@donronaldo5454]

@@RafCenterMyself Ja... Ist nicht einfach. Meist kommt man mit dem großen Kite hin, aber wehe die Mörderböen dreschen rein... Dann ist Überlebenstraining, mit dem Kite auf der Wasseroberfläche... Die Böen reißen Ihn dann immer hoch und man kann nur versuchen nicht weggerissen zu werden...

[@BenBeholzVlogs]

Moinsen, kurz vorweg: Grundvorraussetzung für meine oben beschriebenen Tipps ist natürlich ein angemessene Kitegrösse... Ebenfalls stellt sich die Frage ob du hin und her fahren möchtest, oder bestimmte tricks an bestimmten Orten springen möchtest ?

[@donronaldo5454]

@@BenBeholzVlogs Moin Ben, Fahren, klar und an bestimmten Stellen Springen und / oder Manöver üben. Den XR 13.5 halte ich bin 25 Knoten, die 35 er Böen sind mir dann aber zuviel. Wenn ich den 10 er nehme, hänge ich zu oft im Teich und warte auf ne Böe 😞

[@oseenerby3031]

An meinem Homespot (Binnensee) gibt es niemals straight Wind. Alles was hier gesurft wird, passiert in starken Böen. Die Böen hier haben im Schnitt 10 Knoten mehr als der Grundwind. Das lernen schon die Schüler der ansässigen Schule. Darum, und wegen dem viel zu kleinen Wiesenstrand, wird auch meist im Wasser gelandet und gestartet.

Genius!! 🎉

[@Saxofaxo]

hm interesting. I usually ride much more slow during gusty conditions, due to safety concerns. WIll try to speed up in the future.

[@BenBeholzVlogs]

Everybody does this, it‘s a bit agains our instincts…

[@mouse2542]

if you want to practice in gusty wind, come to the netherlands, it is all we have.

[@Vladishit_Putler]

Just came from another tutorial telling to GO SLOW on strong winds... I'm confused...

[@archnoobpilot4443]

Great tips! I really hate gusty conditions. Last time I was out it was between 8-18m/s, I was alone with my 8 meter switchblade in 3°C water. if I pulled my bar even without any board speed I went like 6 meters into the air. Got scared and called it quits after 25 minutes of ragdolling in the air :D

[@BenBeholzVlogs]

Aiiaiai, that sounds nasty 🙈
