Rejoice kingy, here's a kiter who has worked out the roundhouse cutback!!
that's some of the best kitting i've seen. well impressed.
i think this is the first non gay kiter, lol,..... evolution perhaps..... 
the guy was wacking it silly with off the top snaps and tail slides,but no full round house cutties there my friend.Just my opinion
around 2.49 is about as close as he gets and that's not real close.
A roundhouse cutback whilst getting pulled backwards down the face is what it is.
but that's not a roundhouse cutback as you need to complete the rest of the 180 snap for it to be a roundhouse cutback.
still it's impressive stuff.

Agree

It looks to me like this guy has diched the Jet Ski for a kite. He only even toughes the bar when he is "Towing in" to the wave
Sorry, but isn't this just surfing (and fairly poor surfing on the basis that he has what amounts to a toe-in surf board on 5 foot waves). Is it really that amazing... irrespective of whether a windsurfer could or couldn't do this?
btw, the only reason I'm responding with a post which sounds negative is that I thought I was going to see something cool - maybe it is and I have no appreciation for what you can/can't do on a kite.
Poor surfing?????? You must be Kelly Slater.
Most avaerage surfers would be stoked if they could surf like that.
That dude shreds- kite or no kite. I wish I could surf half as good... 
^^În that case,
no one give Kelly Slater a kite.
He is enough of a freak as it is.
Yeah the guy is definitly a power/agressive rider.
Like you said, the kite is probly pushing him harder.
Would be really interesting to watch him just surfing.
A little clip just to illustrate the bit that he's missing to complete the move.
If he was riding unhooked with a leash on his chickenloop, he might be able to complete it and pull the bar back down with his leash?
