Phil - Nah, just 60i with my cam. 60P would definately be nice for kiting though!
Florian - Yup, still a loop. Obviously you can't see the kite, but you can see which way he's pulling on the bar. Also, notice after the backroll his lines aren't twisted.
Mike - I'll try something like that this weekend. Don't have any shots of the kite at this time, otherwise I'd just overlay it. |

nice video man, keep up the good work. if we all study that, maybe we can get on the inside cover of kiteboarding as well!

This might be the vid you're thinking of:
http://media.bestkiteboarding.com/videos/rainman.wmv
Andy Hurdman does a back roll transition w/hand drag at 2:20, then at 2:40 he does an even sweeter hand drag move that looks to me like a non-transition forward roll from toeside, ending with a kiteloop.
It's one of my favorite vids. |

| Yea, that's definitely a kite loop, but it's he's sweeping away from the kite and looping it late. You can see where he grabs the back of the bar with both hands. |

Yeah, I'm thinking it's still initiated like a transition w/front roll, but with more forward speed, and the kiteloop at the end brings the kite back in the original direction. |

| Sounds like a fun trick to work on, just be sure to loop it super late... |
