I agree! Was really surprised how you can wedge the leading edge into the wind like that and the kite stay.

@@yannickver I've learned that it helps to keep the lines as close to the ground as possible. Helps reduce the spinning somewhat.

I don't understand this kiter why he didn't take the kite and ran against the wind to take the pressure off the kite from the cloth, to simply place the kite on the ground and then weigh it down with sand

Looks way too sketchy to me. And I would never try it on a beach that as a few people on it.

Practice makes purpose, at no time did I feel sketchy. Plus such a tiny kite it's not bad.

😂😂😂😂

It would be much safer and easier to put it on the safety line.

Pulling it on the safety line usually ends with the kite spinning which tangles the bridle. I don't necessarily think this is a dependable/reliable way to self land it in high winds, but it still is pretty interesting that the foil can do this.

Too hard, really.

Really and honestly, do you think you can spread, so that this video, serves in a didactic way, so that people do that, thinking it is safe? Of a hundred possible attempts, how many do you think will come out the same as that? On the other hand, the windward tip must be weighted with sand, but, with much more sand and, better distributed The images do not lie, it would have been blown up. Health and good luck. Aloha

I did this twice in a row with the same results but as I said in the description, I don't know if this is a fluke or something that can be done repetitively. The kite isn't sanded or weighed down whatsoever. Just appears that the leading edge wedges the kite down with the strong wind. This isn't something I would leave like that and I would always guard a line in case it starts to drift away where you can just grab one center line and basically flag it out to safety. It is only a 2.5m kite so not that big of a deal if it gets away from you. FYI I tried this on my 7.5m and didn't have the same luck. I think this is something that may only be possible in stronger winds which again wedges the kite to the ground.
