👉 Kiteboarding Safety Tips | How to Use the Flag Line Eject | Elite Watersports Florida

When there's no one around to catch your kite, knowing how to safely execute an eject self-landing can save your session—and your gear. This video walks you through how to prepare for a clean, controlled eject self-landing by understanding your kite's safety/flag line setup and strategizing your landing direction.

🎯 What You’ll Learn:
✔️ How to identify which side your flag/safety line is connected to on your bridles
✔️ Why it matters when choosing which side to bring your kite down
✔️ How to set up and execute an eject landing with minimal risk
✔️ Tips for practicing in safe conditions and staying in control

Perfect for solo riders or light-wind sessions when assistance isn’t available. This is a critical skill every independent kiteboarder should master.
