Kitesurfing - when everything goes wrong - tangles - rescues - wipeouts

[@Misio0o0]

I definitely wouldn't kite around you.

[@allardo10]

You are dangerous man! I would cut your lines!!

[@TheDigitaldealer]

please let all of us know, where and when you suppose to go out next time, so we can stay away from water to survive your "FUN"

[@cdbkr]

haha liked it... I understand some of the comments but most of this video is about enjoying kitesurfing (and it seems you got it :D ) and helping other kiters in troubles should be appreciated... I believe the lesson learned is to always check who is kiting around (where they are, what they are doing etc..). Apart that, good stuff.

[@khoa7269]

Please stop kiteboarding.

[@zankooo]

Change the Quick Release, it may save you agaist serious injuries and don't jump when there is another closer kiter next to you!!

[@JeromeLoman]

+Žan Kolenc i have to check what happened with the chicken loop. That jump setup is a rotation with a small sandbar upwind. We all come in from left and turn back downwind to go back around into rotation. Usually people are aware and use common sense but a couple of time in 4 hours session there were some close call, We rarely have more than 15 liters at fixed spot and usually we have more setup to play with not running in that traffic issue. Anyway we have to come up with solution else we can't really make use of the spot safely if people don't line up well.

[@MennolAbeesports]

I definitely would kite around you. so much fun hahaha lol people stress

[@JeromeLoman]

+Menno l'Abee 👍

[@federicomartinez9198]

I saw this video 2 years ago. I was not as experienced as I am now, I really hope you could learn a thing or two about what happenend that day in there. Never perform any kind of trick, not even a backroll, much less a kiteloop/downloop without seeing around first. I like your style of riding, I really do the way you perform your tricks is not bad at all. But please, be careful for yourself and for others while on the water. Nothing is worst that when you see a guy around you doing shit that can hurt you or end your session. Anyday is possible to get tangled, but the important thing is to reduce the chances as much as you can. Peace and keep riding hard!

[@JeromeLoman]

Thanks sounds good!

[@curtisparker6043]

You are getting WAY ahead of yourself ,your not as good as you think

[@RossDillonPlayerKiteboarding]

That loop at 0:58 was a proper slam haha , keep it safe man

[@JeromeLoman]

That’s what happen when you try to loop 12m kite ;)

[@chrisferrett1455]

mmmmmmm reading other comments I get the impression their not keen on your session. as a second season rider i got hit hard when another guy kite looped and came down on me, did scare me and it took a while to get going again, like they say , sure enjoy but consider others also..

[@JeromeLoman]

+CHRIS FERRETT ouch, that's tough one. Like landed with his board right near you?

[@gustavotorresvan]

man you have some skills but you are reaching for stuff above your level. take care of your knees and take it easy

[@JeromeLoman]

+Gustavo Torres thanks, yes i shouldn't loop a 12m...

[@marcusekelund7007]

I just wondering,, what do you mean with "take care of your knees"?

[@flyingcamel9444]

looks like people didnt find the tangle as hilarious as i did :D

[@JeromeLoman]

+flyingcamel i was your first but some friend already did it to me twice and somehow he was able to dive his kite between my center and steering line ;) those are a little more fun to get out of.

[@DutchMechanic]

A darkslide with people down wind of you!? tha fak man, thought you where a decent kiter...

[@JeromeLoman]

Freek Gemmeke obviously I didn't see him... it's easy to spot him after checking video, but shit happens, end of session, sun is low, and he came around right from the sun so couldn't judge distance well, usually people do the trick going left and end up far downwind coming back around. I didn't realize but this time he went for a darkslide on shore and came back pretty close to shore.

[@DutchMechanic]

Jerome Loman that is the number one reason for accidents, it is pretty common to first look and then act, first look at you surroundings before changing course or performing tricks.. if you drive on the highway you also look before you change lanes? so why not on the water... my number one irritation when surfing, just freaking look around !

[@JeromeLoman]

Freek Gemmeke 👍

[@normsbigwindow9379]

I like the music. You're clearly a good kiter, and helpful to others. Unfortunately you'd intimidate the shit out of most people and for that I'm glad you don't kite my way. I did learn you have to crash a lot to progress

[@JeromeLoman]

Norms Big Window im not that scary most locals like to kite with me ;) The Video is a little bias toward that to make it interesting. When you kite for 4 hours and edit a video edit the gnarly stuff... In no time you will be there, I have been kiting for less than 3 years.

[@lukassteigerwald5774]

Solche Leute will man nicht am Spot haben. So passieren Unfälle...

[@yillyman]

Risk yourself if you must, not others. You make a bunch of excuses in the comments. Accidents happen, but when many accidents/near misses happen in a day you need to re-evaluate your riding.

[@JeromeLoman]

+Dylan Dobbyn thats true. Definitely was a bad session with a lot of recklessness.

[@yillyman]

Jerome Loman cool. As a "lessons learned don't do this" video I like it.

[@adamfulton6734]

star kites ! dope session man

[@DublinDapper]

dude lots of irresponsible kiting here...stop jumping all over people don't care if there your pals or whatever it's irresponsible and they could get hurt if and when things go wrong.

[@robwilkinson8497]

looks a beautiful spot, cant believe some of those stunts are real?

[@JeromeLoman]

That day was interesting got tangled with a few friends 😱 It was good reminder that I need to be a bit more careful with surrounding.

[@SidorovMaksim]

where is it this spot?

[@yan060910]

C etait les débuts la lol , tu as bien progresser 😊

[@nikolaosdimoglou7823]

Hey Jerome, which cam do you use? i like the video quality

[@JeromeLoman]

+Nikolaos Dimoglou hi that's hero 4 silver on 1080p Superview

[@chrismatti1904]

Where was this footage taken..??

[@JeromeLoman]

Launch is oak beach NY, we kite a bit upwind to sore thumb; we also go upwind to Fire island democratic point depending on weather.

[@chrismatti1904]

Jerome Loman Excellent... I will make sure to avoid this place if I'm ever kiting NY...

[@JeromeLoman]

Lol me too, it’s getting crowded, now I go 1 mile upwind from there ;)

[@theo8326]

i think you need a new bar no?! the plastic is peeling off #safetyfirst

[@JLucRob]

Those loops look brutal ahah! I've never tried doing big loops on a 12m... i dont think i will soon...

[@JeromeLoman]

+JLucRob i tried only once before on really flat water and it worked really well. I didn't try many this time but had either bad pop where body wasn't aligned well, not enough power or looped too late. I guess it wasn't the day... I have to check my lines possibly out of trim. Anyway much better to loop 9 or 10...

[@JeromeLoman]

+JLucRob this session it looped pretty well on 12: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXOnf5lqZtqCeaM

[@JLucRob]

Ya! That looked like it went alright. You remember how windy it was?

[@JeromeLoman]

JLucRob i think 18-22. But you need some flat water or good ramp. The kite i use is new and still not totally tuned right, sometimes it stalls a lot through loop sometimes it works well. Feom 22-23 i csn loop the 9m, i think my 12 is more like 11, I can loop around 20 with a good pop.

[@svenvandekamp794]

nice kiting lol don't let em hate btw drop that green thing keep the torch

[@JeromeLoman]

+sven vdk i have got thick skin thanks ;) Yep green kite one hose pump came out ;( pumped it a bit too hard, I got some new one and zip ties it down. It's 1/3 of price of torch retail... Torch octopus system doesn't have that issue ! Haha.

[@OmerWinrauke]

Where is this spot?

[@JeromeLoman]

+Omer Winrauke New York Longisland on south shore, If you kite a bit upwind you can get clean ocean wave, in video we mostly kite behind a small island but current can be strong during that contributed to some of the rescues in video.

[@OmerWinrauke]

I kitesurf on Long Island as well. Where is this spot specifically? Is there an NYC kitesurfing group so I can see what day people are going to be surfing and where?

[@JeromeLoman]

Omer Winrauke hi, thats Oak Beach, be carful of rocks and current after sand bar. Go in Facebook: "Northeast kitelife" or "kitehood"

[@marcinmdk6084]

it is not safe to kite with you :D

[@JeromeLoman]

It’s fun though ;) Really I’m mostly tame but there are a few sessions I take a few liberty when I know the guys downwind.

[@tikitikidandan]

I dont wana be involved. Please keep away from me 4ever haha

[@JeromeLoman]

👍

[@Zabalero]

Man, you're some kind of a Kitemikaze. Stay quiet man.

[@BDL22321]

I love your style but please dont try to kill anyone ay?

[@JeromeLoman]

Sure

[@BDL22321]

Sweet, keep em videos coming than!

[@JeromeLoman]

Season should start soon here! And planning a trip to North Carolina should be good !

[@BDL22321]

Sounds good, over here in Germany we still got temperatures around 1c..

[@joefulton8011]

Thats what happens when you ride StarKites

[@JeromeLoman]

Joe Fulton whats your favorite for kiteloop, freestyle and beginner unhook?

[@joefulton8011]

Jerome Loman strapless kiteloop :)

[@JeromeLoman]

Joe Fulton easy, im training for loop on hydrofoil ;)

[@lepizeka4300]

Try North kites.

[@JeromeLoman]

+Lepi zeka I would love to to try a Vegas, none around my spots ;( maybe next time I upgrade!

[@lepizeka4300]

Jerome Loman trust me, once you try North, never come back, just find the best kite from north that fits your style and needs, best use their kite finder tool as it will find the best kite for you according to info you give.

[@JeromeLoman]

+Lepi zeka my friend just got a Dice, I'll try it out.

[@lepizeka4300]

Jerome Loman i would also recommend you trying the EVO and REBEL.

[@itsriccardovitri]
