Freestyle & Wakestyle Kites

Freestyle riding is a more advanced style that includes looping or sending your kite while performing maneuvers. Handlepasses and mega-loops are common verbatim in the freestyle market. Kites that are popular in the freestyle world have top-notch unhooked ability, which involves creating tons of pop and allowing the lines to slack appropriately. These kites are also tend to be quick and nimble, allowing the kiteboarder to precisely control the kite to perform technical moves.

Wakestye riding aims to be as similar to wakeboarding as possible.  This involves riding with the kite powered up and low in the window while using the kiteboard to pop off the water to get air rather than using the kite to lift you into the air.  Wakestyle riding often uses wakeboard boots for extra leverage and board security.  This kind of riding is not for the faint of heart and often involves hard falls.
