Trim & symmetry check - (Kitesurfing Tip)

Your kitesurf sessions can go wrong just because your kite is not well trimmed therefore it is really important to do the trim and symmetry check before your sessions. Especially if you didn’t use your kitesurfing gear for a long time. In this episode you will see how to perform a trim & symmetry check and how you can quickly adjust the length of your lines.

i met you at KBC on Sal Cap Verde Islnds , back in 2014 or 15 . :) I like the Vids, some Stuff is good to re -memorize again,even after some years in Kiting ! Cheers mate

Hey, nice to hear that, yes unfortunately I don't remember you by the KZbin name, but if I see you I'm pretty sure I would remember you :) I'm glad to hear that you like my videos, thank you for watching :))

[@donronaldo5454]

You are absolutely right... I just pull up the kite, getting out for riding and avoid taking the time to check my setup! I will perform this check next time

[@kitesurfexperiencebypetar]

Yes, definitely do it, I have seen many people struggling to jump properly, or even just to ride, because they don't know how to perform a Trim & Symmetry check.. really important step to improve in kitesurfing safer and faster :))

Nice video, as always, thank you.

Thank you Florian :)

Hey! Would be really cool to hear about techniques of riding in wavy spots. Found myself in vietnam on a very wavy spot and realized I was only doing flat before, so it is pretty challenging to kite in these conditions. If you like this idea, would be very interesting to hear some tips!

[@kitesurfexperiencebypetar]

Hey Ruslan, I'm having this episode in my mind from when I started my KZbin channel, unfortunately I was not kiting on a wavy spot last year so I didn't have a chance to make this episode, but hopefully this summer I will be able to do so and get the episode ready until the end of summer.

Hi! Very useful, thanks for a video. To make it clear when perform a trim check, should the kite position at 12? (put the kite on the side towards the water)

[@kitesurfexperiencebypetar]

Thank you :) when performing a Trim Check you do NOT want to keep the kite in 12, but on the side towards the water, 11 or 1 oclock

[@kapitaloff]

@@kitesurfexperiencebypetar It's great that you clarified this important point. I'm glad you're helping others with useful advice. Looking forward to new videos with interesting content!

When using the click bar, is it different?

[@kitesurfexperiencebypetar]

The Only difference with click bar is that you are extending or shortening the backlines instead of the front lines.
