SNOW KITE HILL GLIDE FAILS 🤣 💀 ⛔️

[@mikeoclimberMTB]

Be safe out there! I've had Flysurfer QRs unintentionally blow open before, wouldn't trust any kitesurfing QR for gliding use. French standard makes them super sketchy. Not to mention how unlike with a proper glider it only takes one line failure on a kite to bring you crashing down.

Thanks bro. 😎👍 It's definitely not ideal to jump like this with any kite. 💀 With or without modifications. I don't like to loop high up for this very reason you bought up about QR's. Look what happened to Ruben with the Ozone QR on water. Luckily I never had one fail yet. I try to just land with a downloop. So if a QR fails it's ok because Im already on the ground. Alex Robin who is one of the instructors at Kite legende snowkite school said it's more skilled to fly low than to go high. Anyone can technically get big air but I would try to avoid it now. Staying low is much more technical and interesting technique to explore. Watch his videos to see what I mean. This guy can skim the surface of a hill all the way down on a 4m Peak3! kzbin.info/www/bejne/rmTLgIOld6xpgqM 4min50 mark Sometimes when I'm holding my bar I feel like I need to hold on with an iron grip just in case. 😅 I try avoid doing grabs too.
