I always wanted to learn this and will practice this next sesh until I get it right. I guess its called a downloop/frontloop aerial transition??

1:01 to 1:05 in attached video. Any tips would be appreciated.

practice backroll transitions with a downloop...a lot of this trick is in the timing.

check out the latest issue of KITEWORLD. issue #44.
Motor drive section explains how to execute this stylie move.

"for this trick, it will help if you have your regular front rolls dialed."

am i missing something?

It looks like 1:01-1:05 is a backroll hand drag with a kiteloop?

i guess the video shows a backroll kite loop. I read the original post and assumed they wanted advice on the front roll downloop drag...

Thanks!
