Years of experience and complete confidence in extreme conditions.
Consistently jumping above 15 metres.
Already landing kiteloops.

The way forward
Roadmap, safety and theory.
Height & control
Make 15m+ jumping consistent rather than occasional.
Megaloops
Build controlled loop timing and rotations.
Board-offs
Increase complexity while maintaining landing control.
Handlepasses
Introduce or refine passes with expert coaching.
Combinations
Combine rotations, grabs and loops progressively.
Consistency
Perform top-level moves repeatedly in demanding conditions.
This level is only for highly experienced riders. Coach capability, wind quality, space, equipment condition and risk judgement must all be appropriate before attempting high-consequence moves.
