+ !! Description
+ Flipping the kite over from ((Fade)) to belly forward/up + + --- + + !! Execution + + !!! Primary Execution + A barrel roll is a half ((backspin)), though the spin is characteristically unflat. The trick is initiated from a ((fade)). Since the revolution will only be half, the set up of the kite is not as critical as it is for full- and multi- backspins. However, it is easier to be pulling the wing which is lower in the fade. So, from being in the nose-towards, belly up position (fade): pull one wing fairly gently and give a little slack to the other and the kite will roll over to be nose-towards, belly down - and naturally pulls up into normal flying position from there. + + !!! Alternate Execution + + --- + + !! Notes
Since the barrel roll ends with the nose tipped towards the flyer, it is a very useful trick for initiating ((yoyo))s, or for getting into a very deep ((turtle)).
