Sick move Josh! I'm not sure if I'll ever be up for it, but it sure looks like fun. From a teacher's point of you I thought it was an outstanding tutorial, explaining every last detail including steps of progression (landing on the backside). =D> The big question is, are we going to see more??!!
It ain't easy being greene.

Sick move!

As usual, CF makes hard stuff look easy. It's really, really hard to learn to redirect your kite just as you are smacking the lip. Most of us end up turning first with the board, then a second later with the kite; or redirecting the kite just before you hit the lip. Either way you can't get that pop and still head back towards the wave. Doing that is like playing drums, feeling one beat (the wave) in your feet and a completely different one (the kite) in your hands, but coordinating everything perfectly.

I think he's already working on doing it strapless, btw. That would explain some of the big airs I've seen him get lately without the board. :P
