With the kite set on it's wing tips one 15 cm behind the other give a short pop to the nearest wing tip followed by a firm pop on the other, much as in a standard Axel. The kite will jump up and perform an Axel.

Alternative Executions

A slightly different Axel take off is done if with the kite on it's wing tips you pop both lines shortly to get the kite slightly off the ground and after that perform the normal Axel-push/Axel-pop motions.
