The key to any good grab is to know exactly where you’re going to grab before leaving the water. If you are sending the kite, focus on your pop and release to ensure height. Once you execute a proper take off you will have the time and balance to grab wherever you want. For no whip tricks be sure to load your edge and get as much pop as possible. As soon as you pop make your grab and quickly prepare for landing. Grabbing is the best way to make any of your jumps look smoother, add style, and impress all your fans on the beach.
