Hey Anton thanks for these videos. I have been kitting for 6 months now almost every day I can do a whole bunch of tricks but I never paid to much attention on safety till recently when one of my budies got into some serious trouble. I ended up watching your video and as fates may have it last week after an 8 meter jump I landed hard and immediately went into death loop in 25 knots with my slingshot 9. I say in all confidence that I would not have known what to do if I didn't stumble across your video. I just grabbed the furthest line/ handlebar and pulled it in this slowed me down to untangle my bar and I was good to go. Thanks Budi

Really great video! Shared with my local kiters!

Hey man this is GREATLY appreciated. Ive been kiting for a long time (since 2006), and had my share of death loops, but seeing exactly what happens in these circumstances instead of guessing at what would happen is extremely valuable. I've seen people take some ambulance rides due to being dragged backwards by suicide leashes during death loops. Sorry you accidentally cut the real line : | ouch

Testing and showing what happens in all the whatifs. Great!

Anton both of these are excellent. What hurts most in a death loop is panic, either freezing up and getting dragged hard and disoriented, or just grabbing randomly at whatever line is closest. Having a set of simple methods to identify the correct "lever", and depower then stabilize the kite, is better than having 10 knives. And there's just enough in the videos to actually "self configure" both common death loop inducers (centerline cross and bar cross) and get some practice dealing with, neutralizing and correcting both.

God, make all those deathloops as self-resolving as the one you had) Take care, bro!

Kudos for trying a deathloop in these conditions ;) Once I had a deathloop with a Core XR2 when one of the front lines snapped. Thank god I could release the safety then. The XR2 didn't react as nicely as the kite you tried it with - I was feeling like Flipper the dolphin, sometimes under water, sometimes above... Never happened since, thank god. So it can happen with certain kites. I guess the trim is important too.

Thank you very much Anton for your hard work preparing these videos. I'll share here my death loop experience , which happened just yesterday. The wind stalled and consequently my Core XR3 10m falled into the water in the downwind direction. Then I began to try to relaunch the kite but I noticed that something was not ok. It took me a while to realize that one of the direction lines had entangled with the tip of the kite. A sudden gust of wind later, I was being dragged downwind as the kite started looping uncontrollably. So, despite having seen these two invaluable videos before, I entered in panic mode and committed two near fatal mistakes: first, I used the QR, which of course worked as there weren't any lines messing with the bar or QR system but left them out of my reach without stopping the death loop and second, I hesitated in using the leash as the wind blowed right into the beach with a lot of people, including little kids (WTF?) there. By the time releasing completely the kite was the only option, I was being wildly dragged downwind in and out of the water grasping for air and not being able to find the damm leash, which seems easy but under that circumstances it is not. Luckily, I was close the the shore, with onshore wind, and a very brave dude was nearby and stopped the kite with his hands and the kitemare ended. Other wind direction or further from the shore and that was the end of the story for me. Lessons learned: with a Core kite, death loops can continue after QR despite their BS claims that their safety systems are superior, and more important TRAIN IN YOUR HEAD AND IN REAL LIFE THESE SITUATIONS so you react correctly when needed the most. If I had pulled the correct direction line as in these videos, or released the kite without hesitation, I would have saved myself a really scary experience.

Thanks for sharing your story! Do you remember, how exactly the line went over that tip? I was thinking about discussing this case also in the future. And also the leash topic, yeah probably a short video needed. Now they start producing very short leashes and even in the kite user manual (Core) they say to fix the leash right to the metal spreader bar of the harness, near the hook, so that the QR is always close to riders hands.

Great Job Anton! Thanks a lot for that!

Thank you for your great Video on this topic! Also great you commit so mich to your videos, as in that you really get yourself into action and not just talk about it but show it to people - priceless to actually have video proof of the stuff you say/teach! I agree on not relying on one safety aspect completely, However I must say that I always wear my kite knife - eezycut from trilobite. Tried it several times and it cuts through up to 10mm climbing rope easily as through butter - so it might depend on which knife you actually buy. Also tried it with an old flysurfer depowerloop line. Rated for 500kg with an inner dyneema core rated for another 500kg. Cut through that thick rope like butter, even two loops of it and with some force also 4 times that thick rope!

Hey, thanks! It would be great if you tell about this vid in your kite forum or something as a donation to help promoting it a bit. Yes, getting wrapped with the lines is the question I'll cover someday in the video. It looks and feel terrible, but if you're not in a crazy rush and the kite is getting back into power slowly you can still fix it. Just choose one line among the others, the one you can tell which side of it is pointing towards the kite. Then you just start pulling that side of the line, several meters of it, so that the kite would create tension in this single line only, when it's blown down enough, so it won't tense all the lines around your body, but just one, that you're holding in your hand. It will make the full re-power impossible, the kite will stay hanging on one line, flagged, with no power. And you will be sure, that the line is not wrapped around your neck, since you'll be holding it in your hand. That's what I do myself, hope you'll never need it) Take care! Anton.

Hey. It was an RRD Vision 10.5m on a 4-line 2014 Best bar. The bridle snapped where the pulley had been wearing away the bridle line and sent it into a death loop. It was the left bridle that was snapped that is connected to the safety line and so chickening out didn't help. Cheers for your reply. Think it would be the same for any other 4-line kite that has a safety line attached to a single front line.

I had a similar experience on my Cabrinha Switchblade 12m 2013. One of the front lines snapped just at the bridle and I was dragged in a death loop over a km while trying to figure out what was wrong. The snapped line was wrapped up around my leg and my bar all over the place so I had no idea what the cause was. I tried to find out where the wrap was but the loose line really confused me and scared me since I was thinking that it might get tensioned suddenly and cut my leg or hands. After the kite hitting the surface and throwing itself front and back I could see the loose bridle with the help of a fellow kiter. I did not want to release though since I was scared that it was the rescue line that was cut. Only later did I learn that both front lines acts release on the Switchblade so it would have been safe to unleash. If I pulled a bit on any of the three remaining lines the power and tendency to spin only got worse but at the end what did the trick was relly committing to pulling one of the steering lines, so similar to what you teach in the videos. Thank you for the videos!

I agree, it's definitely a great video. Thanks. I'm surprised you don't have more comment. I've a question : why it's a hook (where the bar can stuck) and not a closed ring ?

Takes some Cojones to do what you did here Anton. impressive stuff. Cheers

Thanks a lot for the video. Was really helpful. I had a dead-loop experience last week. I haven't seen this video before. Things happened so quick, I was wondering all the time why safety didn't work. Now it explains. I jumped and my chicken loop came out of the hook. I didn't notice that but when saw my bar is far away in a dead loop and connected with my leash only. Was scary as I didn't understand what just happened. I can see if I had a short leash I could probably reach the bar. Is there any way to get out of it if you are on a long leash?

This is exactly what happened to me: I transitioned too fast getting into unintended jump and on landing my kite started to loop. I did not see any entangled lines but maybe I was too stressed. Eventually I had to release it.

My kite (10 meter) went into a death loop and could not get it to to stop using your technique (18 knots) wind. I had to pull my chicken loop. Do you have any other techniques if this one falls...but thank you for sharing your experience with us have learned a lot.

I had also a Deathloop as my lines tangled up as I did a lunch from a Lagoon from Holbox/Mexico. I noticed the lines are not good so I wanted to land my Kite and out of a sudden I felt so much pull, that I got pulled up 4 meters High and it pulled me 30meters across the sea next to the beach, there were even some rocks. I was unconcious for a minute. But then I pulled quickrelase and after a time my Kite got pushed down luckily. What should I do in Situations like this ?

Those two videos were excellent. Personally I haven't had this one happen to me, but have seen videos of it. What I have had happen a few times is a line going across the canopy (so pulling your steeing line in as well) this causes the same outcome, it would be great to extend your videos to include that. I would guess that your same technique of pulling other steering line to reverse land the kite would still work in this situation?

How about this? If the bar end get's hooked into your harness and you start getting dragged. What if you lean back into a "feet first" drag position? Then the hook opens and bar comes out, and the kite depowers. That would work, right?

@antonchernyshov8759

Hey, didn't get the idea) I've never tried to body drag with feet in front. They are experiencing a lot of water resistance, is it ever possible to bring them in front of the body?) Well, it could work maybe, but the hook is rotating, since the belts are not rigid. It is always pointing with it top to the power source. That's why you don't get off the hook when doing a deadman trick. Hope I've got your idea right!) Thanks. Anton.

what spot is this in the philippines?

being a beginner and not sure if the problem resolved itself after the loops, i wanted to proceed with self rescue and wrapped up + secured the steering line on the bar. (.... 1-2 bar lenghts early as i noticed later). a gust came in, the until then stable kite flipped, the tangled line around the bridle on the other side freed up and the kite now looped the other way around. Without any chance to get to the bar now and somehow with the leash under or around the my hook, blocking the last millimiters needed to release completely. stupid as i tend to react in these situations i was really optimistic to be able to get out of my harness... i ended up cutting the rope at the beginning of the safety leash. would it make sense to flag the kite with the safety / one of the front lines instead once it's possible maybe?

@antonchernyshov8759

7 жыл бұрын

Hi! Sorry, I didn't get it right, maybe. You've flagged the kite using one of the steering lines, started to wrap em up and then the kite relaunched? But what actually happened from the beginning? The steering line wrapped around the hook? Or something else, what caused the loop? Yeah, for sure, using the safety line to flag the kite is still the best option. However it depends on how it was tangled, you probably may have some problems also wrapping the safety line, if it crosses-and-blocks with some other lines underwater. Anything possible with 24m of floating ropes! I think, it's really important, after the looping stops, to untangle the lines or any ropes from your body first and be ready to release it completely. Well...however you should always go through that procedure, if you fall and mess with the lines a bit...

Hi anton. It was the maindepower (best t3). However. The kite also was flipped inside out.

Thanks for video. My last deathloop it was bridle caught in wingtip. I remembered you video and tried to pull steering line but I pulled wrong one, kite was looping left and tried to pull left line and wasn't able to backstall it, later on I noticed that I should have pulled in right line instead. Pulling left was too hard with power. It had looped only once or twice I think. would I be able to back stall it from a bridle wingtip? Anyway I ended up releasing whole thing because quick release didn't flag kite.

@antonchernyshov8759

8 жыл бұрын

Hey, thanks for your question. Well, I think that pulling the "other" line will also work when you have a bridle twist. (By the way, what was the kite?) The idea should be the same. Your jammed line increases the angle of attack on one side on the canopy (left side in your case), so if you also increase the angle on the right side, the wing will go beyond the critical angle of attack, will lose the connection with the airflow and stall (lose the lift, in other words), like an airplane wing does. But, yeah, it doesn't jam your QR, so...) it's ok anyway. Well....may be I should film a bridle jamming case also?) Why not. A bit harder to simulate, though....

Yeah, I see, the kite cheated you) The bar was looking like the white-side-of-the-bar line is shorter, but in fact, the other line was "shortened" by the bridle. It's a pity....I think you could handle it, if tried the other line...But, yeah...That was not the easiest case!

Is it easy to replace the ropes after you cut them?
