KEY ELEMENTS: â–ºClean landing on the leading edge for the entry. â–ºLaunch and rotation. ExecutionStand the kite on it's wing tips. Then let the nose fall forward about 15 cm and do a sharp pop and give slack like a Yo-Yo Takeoff only as the kite comes around take up the slack on one line so the kite lands on it's leading edge with the lines coming up over the trailing edge. Do a long firm pull on the same side as the kite is laid on. So the kite jumps in the air and performs a Lazy Susan rotation as it does this you need to take up the slack you gave in the Yo-Yo so you keep in touch with the kite. Once the kite has completed the Lazy Susan rotation give slack so it lands on it's wing tips ready to do another K2000.Alternative ExecutionsSee Randy Greenway's tutorialVideo LinksVideos with the TrickTutorialsA tutorial by Randy GreenwayTPUSA judging tutorial Related TricksLazy Susan, Two-Point Landing and Yo-Yo Takeoff |
