Adapt and ride in whatever conditions you get offered

It's not all about strong winds in big air, I have to make use of every thing nature throws at me, Not suited for riding doesn't exist in my vocabulary. I make use of anything from 10 up to 60 knots
Tarifa On Fire

I rushed to Tarifa for a one week Levante forecast to get some proper training done. Always a gamble how conditions turn out but there were a few epic days.
Big Air at the Lagoon "on a bad day"

You recognize that ? Getting lured into a session with a really promising forecast and they get it completely wrong? Well that was this session but somehow the lagoon works its magic and I had some proper training.
Lords of Tram 2024, preparing for the battle
Переглядів 3,2 тис.2 місяці тому
Preparation for a major competition is very important to me. Just a few days before the green light of the Lords of Tram 2024, I prepared myself for the battle to come. Conditions were challenging at times but it was enough to built confidens for single and double loops to go into the competition as prepared as possible.
Lords of Tram 2024, from a leap of faith to the win

Me going independent was probably the hardest decision I had to make but inevitable to show my true potential. I haven't felt this confident for a long time and this new approach definitely could redefine professional kiteboarding.
Flips Spins & Dips, style to the max

The best sessions are where new moves and innovation happen naturally. Combinations are limitless and so much fun.
Let there be loops, my best kiteloops of 2023

Recap of my best kiteloop sessions 2023. Recorded on locations in the Netherlands, Denmark, France and South Africa
Dutch winter sessions
Переглядів 2,5 тис.4 місяці тому
Combined a few recent sessions I had in the Netherlands during winter. The big advantage in winter is there's almost nobody around.
Sky Dancer
Переглядів 6 тис.4 місяці тому
I'm often referred to as a dancer in the sky when i'm having my foilkite freeride sessions. I think it's a suiting description of this floating elegant style of riding.
The Jezus Dip
Переглядів 6 тис.4 місяці тому
Just some cool ways to end and land a trick or jump, I call it the Jezus dip or Jezus slide
Double Up, is twice the risk, twice the reward ?
Переглядів 4,6 тис.5 місяців тому
Not many Dutch spots offer the conditions you need for pulling secure double loops. Dutch winter doesn't make it any easier but on this day it worked out pretty okay.
Kiteboarding - Below Zero
Переглядів 4,7 тис.5 місяців тому
Freezing temperatures, thick neo, gloves and boots. Limited bar feel, limited board feel should have some serious impact on expected performance. Well let me know in the comments what you think of me handling the freeze.
Ice Kiting in my backyard
Переглядів 1,4 тис.5 місяців тому
Flooded Meadows, a few nights of below zero degrees and a tiny breeze made it possible to put my Chrono up in the air and grab my ice skates from the attic. No action just piece of mind and serenity.
The King of Airstyle
Переглядів 9 тис.5 місяців тому
Airstyle is still one of the must fun disciplines in kiteboarding if you ask me. High floaty jumps with loads of time to try combinations and get your kite controll at the highest possible level

Awesome show! What board are you riding?
Old Code V2
@@sejalipe what size? I'm on a 138x42.5 @ 80kg as a one size fits all but struggle with holding the edge in well powered conditions.
@@opusdei51 132
Cut your hair, please !!! It spoils the show.
Sorry can't do that
Absolutely amazing. I would rather watch this than kite loops.
Thanks, it will always be personal preference what people like more. I like to do both but for proper kite loops you need 30+ knots wind and we don't get a lot of that in the Netherlands. This is a perfect way to make good use of the majority of days with less wind not suitable for kite loops
Sagenhaft, das gibt es doch gar nicht, RESPEKT
What you do is amazing. I wish I could see your kite. I’d like to learn from you. Maybe a split screen? That shows what your kite is doing. But incredible. Keep on doing, Jamie!!
Thanks, I hear you but my main focus is on the tricks. I know a lot of people would like to see the kite movement also but it will not help in copying what I do, there's years of training involved that got me to this level of control and you'll have to put in the hours and get one with the kite.😉🤙
OMG mind blown, so many amazing tricks. You are totally the SAS of kitesurfing. Which kite and size are you riding ?
Thanks, most of the clips are on the R1V4 15, a few on the 10.
You are Mr Smooth.... thanks for making theese videos❤
You're welcome bro🤙
As a rider who can't get any pop from toeside and can't even ride blind, I can't even begin to fathom how hard it must be getting that amount of pop from blind. 👍🏻🦿🦿
It's not easy but you got to keep trying to hit that sweetspot🤙
Jamie, you need to show us at least one video where you untwist the bar after all this 😅
que grosoo!
Unbelievable 👌
lets gooooo yes sir! the boss of stylish
Thanks
Style is everything. Even the most basic trick with style looks sick.
Totally agree bro🤙
Yep 100% agree. Tom Herbert's 'Tom's Kitchen' series were a great example of style over technically difficult tricks. For me that's why I can never fully appreciate wakestyle, it's so technical to the point that it looks robotic. Keep it stylish 😁
On what heliloops is it easier for you on the R1 to get that second lift? Fronthand or after a send to the opposite side and backhand heli?
Doesn't matter, it's all about technique/take off and feeling the kite response. Most important is getting the kite above you instead of in front of you.
Lekker bezig!
Best wel toch😉
How long he pull the bar on 1 side… must to be a very slow foil kite. And this bar? Half meter depower? Anyway, amazing!
Race kite and race bar bro😉
You've got super sick unique skills.. It's like magic. Cranking loops while spinning like a top would be disaster for any other rider, haha. Amazing kite control when it looks like kaos. 👌
Thanks, appreciate it bro
can you do king of dead men?
Not sure what you mean bro
My first thought was, How is this even possible!!! 😅 Another awesome video. Thank you 😍🤙🏼
Hahaha, with proper training a lot can be achieved but you gotta work hard to make progress 🤙
@@sejalipe So I see. Haha. Incredible, the airtime is also amazing. I really love to watch your video's. 🤙🏼 Keep up the good work. 👊🏽
Leagues ahead on the airstyle.
Thanks
How high do you need to be to heliloop that 15m and/or how do you make sure it loops above of you? At what moment in the jump do you slightly depower the bar and what is the sweetspot on the amount? Thanks and great stuff!
Hard to explain it's for me more like a reflex, exactly feeling the feedback the kite gives me. It's the result of trail and error and years of riding and training on foilkites.
👏👏🤘 as always absolutely amazing 🔥
Thanks 🤙
Great performance Jamie! I watched it several times and your style is one of its own! What size of the R1 did you take?
Thanks, most clips were on the 15, a few on the 10
Niks aan die foilkites 😂
Helemaal eens Marco, maar je moet wat😉
WIIIIIPPPPPPIIIIIKKKKAAAAAAA
Ok, you've got skills for sure and you've proven many times you can perform loops on the highest level... BUT I dont understand why young riders think this type of riding counts as big air and more over is cool in any way. This is 100% airstyle and what Toby Brauer was pushing years ago. At that time it was also the most laughed at and hidious style of riding you could choose. I don't think it's stylish, I would say it's random and it has more common with circus tricks rather than a proper boardsport that kiteboarding should be. Again how come this is supposed to be cool in 2024 when 10 years ago Toby's airstyle was the biggest joke???
no comment on your comment...you are one of a hundred...and yes it is cool also in 2024! Almost all people are absolutely stoked to watch this and I love it!
Think outside the box bro this is training for the high technicality of big air. Current big air is nothing else than a mix of airstyle and added kite loops. Like it or not it's an essential part of training.
@@sejalipe true point. Multiple rotations, board offs need to be trained somehow and this is the most effective way, I get it. However it's a bit alarming that competition bigair is slowly turning into hardcore airstyle and adding all the nonsense (I mean how many tictacs or board flips you really need in a megaloop?) rather than just improving the qaulity and extremity of the loop. If S-loops and dbl loops will win 2024 KotA that's all good but if you will have to add a stupid boardflip to every loop just to qualify for the final that sounds like a bad joke.
@@truekejner to some point I agree, but let me explain how it works. Riders follow the trend and perform what the judges want to see and what scores. It's all about how you make it look, low kite angle, 20+ meters and showing extreme control and technical ability gets my respect any day.
This comment made me laugh. I too think Toby looked a bit ridiculous but mainly because of the ballerina-like act with the pointy toes, coming from a big man and not because of the tricks themselves. It looks awesome! As long as we dont go full ballerina mode 😂
Still King of the Airstyle for sure! 👍
Thanks bro🤙
Een klasse apart! Ik kan ernaar blijven kijken, heerlijk! Jamie, bedankt!
Dankjewel en graag gedaan 🤙
Wow, so many original tricks. Like trowing the board with one hand and picking it up with the other hand after some spins. Awewsome.
Yeah according to the people watching me while I'm training they find it awsome and tell me they never saw anything like it before 😉🤙
The letter "U" is missing for Unique !!
Yeah bro🚀🚀
Which kite are you using?
R1
That's sick Jamie. Love your style especially when you don't overdo it and you really show the flow;)
Sometimes it's planned and sometimes you it the gust and get that much airtime that you start improvising to fill up the time you get😉
Nice Footage. I like your "handwork" on the bar. How fast they go from the inside to the outside of the bar & depower inbetween your jumps. This kite likes you, too😀
Thanks bro
It would be so helpful to see the kite on those first moves!
Thanks. Thats exact my question...
It’s just downlooping. Cause the wind is floaty it just stays above
Phenomenal Jamie! But when are you going to step up your game?😁
I know Jeff, I should step up my game,this is getting boring😉
crazy control!
Thanks Adrian, when I get into the flow anything seems to work out😉
Makkum! Hoop je ooit nog eens te ontmoeten daar!
Ja, top spot alleen ff wachten tot Oktober als de spot weer open gaat 🤙
Dit is echt vet
Thanks
What is your hydrofoil set up? Are you using the levitaz race board and race wings?
I use the Levitaz Exo board with the R5 XS race wing and mast
@@sejalipe Thanks! How is the durability of the race wing for big air? My race friend says it's really fragile and didn't recommend for big air. I'm hoping that may have changed in the last few years though. Note that I want my gear to last 5+ years if possible.
@@movieman12341 Levitaz is top Notch quality but keep in mind this is a race setup never intended for big air. I use it without any significant problems but you gotta stick landings clean and as soft as possible to keep your gear in one piece. Better check out the Aspect wing first for big air.
@@sejalipe will do. I actually already currently use the aspect 2 wing😃. It seems really twitchy at top speed and I was hoping the race wing might be more stable and less twitchy at speed. Only problem is I’m not you so still have harder landings at times even with foil kite. lol.
@@movieman12341 yeah probably not use me as a benchmark, I tend to use gear for purposes it wasn't intended for. The main reason for me to use the R5 is speed stabikity and less drag which transforms into explosive high jumps. But uncontrolled hard landings will ruin a delicate race setup
Nice Style and video, Thanks! I would like to see more of the kite, to get a better feel...
Yeah I get that but wanna focus on the tricks and I'm not supported by the brand anymore so no promo on their behalf.
@@sejalipe Yeah, I understand. But in my opinion the feeling for the trick is better, when I can see the kite movement, too. Maybe a few scenes with kite in video to mix it up a tittle, pretty please ;)
How long have you been riding legend?
I started at 9, so about 9 years now.
Awesome🧚♂️😍❣️👍
Thanks 🙏
💞Wow🧡🧡💜💜💜💜💜🧡
Hey Charles Brodel ??? you have Jamie here !!!! :-)
Hahaha,Charles knows but the hydrofoil is just a side activity for me and frankly I only really like it in 25+ knots.
Excellent ! Congrats 👍🤙
Thanks bro🤙
Hey Jamie how often do you pull the kite exactly the way you planned versus realizing its about to do something you were anticipating but rolling with it anyway?
To be honest it almost always goes as planned if not I improvise and manage to correct it anyway 😉
King of Airstyle 👑
Thanks bro🤙
sooooo floaty! excelent! whats the foil size Jamie? Thx😀
Thanks bro, it's a size 18. I only use it when conditions are getting desperate 😉
what kite and what size were you riding?
R1V4 size 18.0
