Can it be done on water????

[CrazyJay]

I tried and tried and tried today to do the kite 360. Actually got to 320 degrees (kite past upwind by 10-20 degrees) but still no luck. Actually wiped out and ended up seeing stars on one attempt.
Not gonna say it CAN'T be done on water but I was slingshoting at over 45 knots and still no luck.
Anyone else try yet?

I'll give it a try this weekend... thinking a hard down loop straight under the kite and another loop trying to get the kite behind me when it does the loop....

Should be fun.

I am betting though that if you couldn't do it I can't either for obvious reasons.

I was on a port tack then downlooped hard thru and accross the window while at the same time trying to "crack the whip". I almost got it a couple times but it stalled upwind of me. I was able to get it past dead upwind which was promising.
One thing I learned is that the lines must be tight the whole way or it falls every time.
good luck, let me know if you find another technique that works.

It sounds like you were pretty close. I'm going to give it a shot.
