haven't landed a handle pass in the air yet, tryed one... didn't go to well.. i'll upload the pic of that in a minute lol

the way i do an f-16 is...

unhook, put both hands on one side of the bar, and when the kite starts to face the opposite direction and before it whips around you pop and throw a laid out backroll.

it's all timing though, thats why you should try a normal kiteloop first, get the timing down on when to pop.

go out and try a normal kiteloop.

go a little downwind, edge hard and pop when the kite starts to loop

lay out as flat as you can, don't panic, you have to commit 110%

spot your landing, bend your knees, and prepare for a hard landing.

it's easier to start the kite higher, the more lower the kite the more whip your gana get.
