For example: How to jump in Kitesurfing
By far one of the easiest moves you can make during a beginner class
in kitesurfing is the exhilarating jump. There is no other feeling
like it in the world, letting both the air and waves set you afloat
in mid-air. The hardest part to performing any jump is the landing.
During your initial training period with a certified instructor you
will learn the pros and cons of jumping while kitesurfing.
One of the first moves you will probably learn is the jump. A jump
can be performed several different ways. Once you have reached a comfortable
speed and plain, start to reel in the kite to begin lifting your board
upward. Turn the kite quickly overhead as it begins to ascend bring
up the front of the board. You can actually use your back foot to pitch
the board at about a 60-degree angle and push up hard. Your body should
be crouched with your knees bent. The lift and power from the board
and kite will send you soaring into the air. Depending on how much
power you create will determine the lift and hang time.
Once you have achieved the peak jump, you will need to keep the board
nose slightly tilted and have your knees bent to achieve the impact
without a crash. There are many variations of jumps you can create
and perform with certified instructors. The conditions that matter
the most are the wind velocity and speed on the water if you can maintain
a high rate of speed and keep the lift on a good angle you can reach
10 – 20 feet no problem. Remember that the higher you go up the
harder you will come down. Keep your bar attached firmly gripped in-hand
and get ready for impact.
Remember to try to place your board between waves
and chops so your board will slice through the plain instead of crash
downward. Make sure you practice jumps in designated areas away from
swimmers and other kitesurfers.
