killer shot. I don't know if I'd rather be able to pull off a cool trick or have a sweet-ass camera and skills to know how do a shot like that. damn...

Multishot series and photoshop.

That's sick Alex, could you describe what exactly is going on? I see the unhooked kiteloop handle pass but I can't tell what else is going on there... (ie: the shifty part). Hard to tell which way the kite looped and when from that shot.

Awesome shot though and sick trick. Hope I can ride like that some day.

its essentially a double kiteloop shifty three. I was riding left foot forward, going from the right of the frame to the left of the frame. Kite starts its loop basically in the center of all the kites, it almost looks a little brighter. Once i pop and start the loop i turned my board the opposite way i start spinning(which is called a shifty). after the shifty i just do a FS 360 pass. The crazy thing is when i caught the bar, i caught it after it had already looped once, and when i passed it i caught the bar on the same side i was originally pulling on so the kite kept looping and actually had done two by the time i landed. I was on an 8m.

hope everyone liked it...

must be nice to be light enough to ride an 8m :)
i probably would have been on a 13m :(
