Simon Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Something Mark Lummas told me, fly the figure, finish / Land, call out like the judge is deaf and a mile away. Then dont move the kite for at least 5 seconds!! That give the judge time to see the kite "land" stay still, they turn round and the last thing they remember is how well you finished the figure - as a judge trust me its subtle but it works - as a flyer trust me it works The competition compulsories used for Multi-line(Quad-line) Individuals, Pairs and Teams are documented in the ISK Compulsories Book.ISK Compulsories Book version 2.1 dated 1 August 2006 at: http://worldsportkite.com/irb/ISK%20Compul...nal_Release.pdf There are animated versions created by Roy Reed at: http://www.reeddesign.co.uk/iskcb/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiteLife Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Agreed Simon, I always call in, mentally count 1, 2, LAUNCH... After my out call, I traditionally wait about 3 seconds before launching to unwrap, etc. Remember, there's a mood implied by how you enter and exit the comp field, as well as your in/out calling methodology. Sure, judging "should" be all facts from the routine, but setting the stage effects their mood, and helps you convey the style they're going to be judging.

[email protected] Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 Got a few questions regarding compulsories - How does the call in/out proceedure apply to precision moves that start near the top of the window, like the Two Down? I see certain moves can be performed "flyer's choice" (Lollypop), in any direction. Is this possible for all the compulsories, or only for the ones where it is specifically mentioned? Just curious..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnmitchell Posted April 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 Got a few questions regarding compulsories - How does the call in/out proceedure apply to precision moves that start near the top of the window, like the Two Down? I see certain moves can be performed "flyer's choice" (Lollypop), in any direction. Is this possible for all the compulsories, or only for the ones where it is specifically mentioned? Just curious..... It is best to refer directly to the ISK Compulsories Book". http://www.worldsportkite.com/irb/ISK%20Compulsories%20Book%20v2.2.1.pdf . Any changes can be found at: http://www.worldsportkite.com/irb/ISK%20Compulsories%20Book%20v2.2.1.pdf . Click on rules. There are other sites that also have the rule books. Anything I say here may or may not be correct as I am only responding with what I recall. It has been over 6 years since I rewrote the book. In 2007 I retired from competition kiting. Refer to the drawing. Where it is written IN is when you call IN. That is before the first element is flown. Refer to the drawing. Where it is written OUT is when you call OUT. That is after the last element is flown. I believe all figures can be flown mirror, however you must inform the field director, before you attempt to fly the figure, who will inform the judges. If you don't then you will get a zero. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
