Never seen this done before... looks friggin nuts.

The landing looked a little hard, but impressive none the less!



Should also mention, 6m rebel in 40knots.

Remember a Lenten attempt several years ago. I think he decided it was pointless...

Every trick is pointless, especially if you can't do it.

Doesn't look pointless to me. Looks badass.

Why did Lenten conclude it was pointless?

According to bjw, he couldn't do it

IIRC the second loop is purely decorative, provides no lift or pull, so was borderline dangerous...

Edit: "several years ago"
I must be getting old this was 2010

looks insane, them set of balls you would need to initiate that second loop while hurtling toward the water.

"IIRC the second loop is purely decorative, provides no lift or pull, so was borderline dangerous..."

I was thinking that myself, hence the hard landing..

If you've seen "Upwind", there's a very young Lenten doing his thing at the early KOTA comps... He's probably had more experience before I picked the sport up, then I'll ever have. That's about as much as I can comprehend
