BACK LOOP          Rider: Francesco Ventura         Location: El Cabezo/ Tenerife

 

1 Choose a steep ramp and go for a very vertical jump.

2 Jump into the wind, and try to go high, instead of rotating immediately

 

3 As you reached the highest point, it´s time to rotate.

4 Open the sail and look down to the point, where you expect to land.

 

5 Leave the sail open and give pressure on the mastfoot, to prepare for a nosedive landing.

6 As the sail turns through the wind, get ready to handle the sudden pressure!

 

7

Very important: jump high and rotate slowly!
