		<description><![CDATA[The Megaloop 360 is definitely a scary one in the beginning.
You first want to try some normal backroll kiteloops and get comfortable unhooking mid-air.
It&#8217;s all about timing and speed, just like any other move? Gheghe!
So let me explain what to do.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Megaloop 360 is definitely a scary one in the beginning.<br />
You first want to try some normal backroll kiteloops and get comfortable unhooking mid-air.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s all about timing and speed, just like any other move? Gheghe!<span id="more-572"></span></p>
<p>So let me explain what to do.</p>
<p>-You take off full speed, try to edge hard while you pull the kite up and around.<br />
-Throw yourself into a fluent backroll with your stomach muscles tensed up and keep pulling the kite around<br />
-Once the kite has come around and you?ve completed your backroll you keep looking over your left shoulder and pull yourself towards the bar.<br />
By rotating you? ll turn your hook out of your chicken loop.<br />
-The kite will have speed and will go up so concentrate on your handlepass.<br />
-After completing the handlepass make sure you hold on and get your second hand back on the bar.<br />
-Spot your landing and enjoy the feeling ?</p>
<p>Sometimes the chicken loop will stay in the hook, so then you can&#8217;t pass and rotate further.<br />
Try to recover by just turning back and control the kite?</p>

<p>Rock that shit!! Good Luck?</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Trick Update:
1- Make sure you have enough speed
2- Spot your take-off place
3- Just before you take off you put your kite from 9 to 11&#8230;
4- Edge really hard, kick your board upwind to take off smooth and pull consistent to get most height possible
5- The harder you edge against your pull, the higher you go [...]]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Trick Update:</p>
<p>1- Make sure you have enough speed</p>
<p>2- Spot your take-off place</p>
<p>3- Just before you take off you put your kite from 9 to 11&#8230;<span id="more-379"></span></p>
<p>4- Edge really hard, kick your board upwind to take off smooth and pull consistent to get most height possible</p>
<p>5- The harder you edge against your pull, the higher you go and the faster the kite will turn</p>
<p>6- When you release keep on pulling and chuck yourself forward to get inverted</p>
<p>7- Tense your stomach muscles and pull in one knee to hold nice position</p>
<p>8- Throw in a grab when you feel comfortable</p>
<p>9- After completing rotation and loop check altitude and kite position</p>
<p>10- Spot landing and bring kite in good position by maybe looping it again or just send it down</p>
<p>Good luck with trying this move!! Let me know if you have any questions, comments or suggestions.</p>
<p>Peace!<br />
