kiteloops

i know it sounds crazy, but kiteloops, backroll kiteloops, etc. are way easyer unhooked. i think it is because the kite is pulling from your hands instead of your waiste. and if it all goes bad you can just let go.

with one caveat, if you're nicely powered you can get your arm pulled out of it's socket :(
