  • Interests
    I always loved to fly stunt kites. I stopped for a while because I got bored of doing axles and fades all day, but then I got back into it when I saw the new slack line tricks. I got the big bang and learned some of the tricks with that. Now I fly the rsky nirvana which I really like. We have a pretty good spot here in brooklyn, ny which I've been coming down to since I was a kid. There are a couple of "no kite flying" signs there, but me and my friend never really had any problems with that.

    comete q?

    Skunk replied to Skunk's topic in Trick Flying

    Yes the comet explanation really helped. Accually the first time I tried it I got a pretty good outcome. Just like you said, half axled then a quick half axle and so on. It worked pretty well, just need to practice it more. The insane I don't really see what the kite is doing. I'm just not sure how to go into it. The slot machine I can't do yet but I'm pretty good with 540s.

    I pretty much got the comet, just more practice. The insane I didn't even come close to. I did what you said but everytime I half axled and pulled back with the popping hand, the wingtip got caught. I don't get it...

    I got the comet, the only thing is to practice it now. The insane I couldn't get. The wind was gusty. I did what you said but just got the wing wrapped. It tangled everytime I did the half axle and pulled back with the popping hand, I mean I tried everything.

    Yeah now I see. I'm also working on the insane. I got it a couple of times in high wind at the side of the window, but now I can't get it at all.

    Thanx alot, i thought it had to be a bunch of well timed half axles. i usually get the first 3 positons up to the point were the kite is belly up and nose away. the hard part is timing it right so the kite comes out for the next half axle.
