Kite Tricks
Backspin Cascade
Group 3
Description
The Backspin Cascade is a Backspin in which each rotation reverses direction. The trick begins with a Fade (belly up, nose toward the pilot) that is entered the same as for the Backspin then the kite alternates rotating in one direction and then the other. The kite must complete at least three full reversing rotations. The reversals should be crisp, with little to no discernible pause between rotations. The method and direction of exit do not matter.
Key Elements
