As a beginner I notice that mastering the art of the deep water relaunch is paramount to being able to kite . I was out on a 14 m draft on the weekend, I crashed lost my board and crashed the kite ,when I tried to relaunch I found I couldn't get any purchase to stop the kite just dragging me down wind hence I couldn't get back to my board . I ended up having to pull the safety , swim to my board , then wind up my tangled lines and self rescue back to the beach. I realise that not dropping my kite in the first place is probably the way to go , but is there a technique for relaunch in that situation ?
