Similar to the jumps kiters do when its only half as windy.
Not at all similar.
Firstly kiters need no ramp, and just rip on a heap of power so they get dragged up into the sky. Very very different to needing a ramp, right takeoff angle with wind under the board, right sheeting angle and not much lift so the landing is NEVER gentle.
Then further he did a
full end over end proper forward loop. Something we are yet to see from kiting. And never will, I predict.
So no, nothing like it.
BTW half as windy would be 35kn and I see about 10% of kiters who can handle a solid 35.
