Popped Front Loop to Toeside
A while back we went through the sent, jumped version of this, and now it’s time for the next step, the popped one. If you haven’t yet tried this using the kite we suggest you do, as you’ll have more time and be in a more balanced position from which to land toe side. If you have and therefore have...
S-Bend Pass
The S-Bend Pass, or aggressively popped front loop pass, is your next stage on from landing blind. It’s a blind judge tagged onto the end of an S-Bend in much the same way that blind is tagged onto an S-Bend. Herein lies the secret, as once again you’ll be tying together two moves that you can hopefully/presumably already land, as...

DUOTONE Volt SLS
The Duotone Volt SLS is a small-wave surfboard designed to retain speed, responsiveness and riding interest when the surf provides limited power. Its updated shape uses a shorter, rounder outline with extra width under the front foot, giving the rider a supportive platform through soft sections without making the board feel cumbersome. A low entry rocker and double-concave bottom work...
DUOTONE TS Big Air SLS
The TS Big Air SLS is Duotone's dedicated competition big-air twin tip, developed for riders who need strong edge control at speed, explosive take-offs and dependable landings after powered jumps. It uses the firm, lightweight SLS approach rather than a comfort-led freeride construction.
