Flysurfer Buggy teamrider Luke Southern is pushing himself to invent and create new Buggy Freestyle tricks, some weeks ago he came up with a new trick variation called: The Fork Spin.

Check out this video from Tom at www.kiteitright.com to see what a huge kite loop looks like from the rider's perspective. Shot on a GoPro Camera.

Rotations are easy and they will add a lot of variety to your jumps, as you can spin frontside or backside for either one or multiple rotations. The key to rotations is all in your head, and we don’t mean your brain.

Let’s face it – a lot of people want to get into kiteboarding so they can jump. You should learn how to stay upwind and do transitions before you start trying to jump, but we know that the reality is that you want to learn how to jump as soon as you are able to go 10 feet on a kiteboard.

Learning a few unhooked load and pop tricks adds a whole new realm of possibilities to your riding. Unhooking is not just for young riders and is actually a lot easier than you think.

OK, this is not a stunt that we approve or suggest that anyone try, but we have to admit that it's pretty amazing
