1. Get cruising, fairly powered
2. Have the kite mostly sheeted out and move it a little higher in the window (10-11/1-2)
3. send the kite the opposite direction (a little past 12)
4. edge hard
5. as the kite accelerates past 12 sheet in and pop
6. keep the kite sheeted in
7. redirect the kite so it is above you (sheeted in)
8. dangle for a while (sheeted in)
9. when approaching the water again (1-3m away) aggressively redirect the kite directly downwind (you can sheet out at some point here)
10. ride away with your fist pumping and make some sounds like Wooot wooot or Booo Yeah
