My pleasure, so sorry I didnt post these a long time ago....please pass on all of these Free Dodd's flight school videos and help build our sport back up again...
It would appear that basic kite moves and direction changes are like cartwheels in the sense that during the turn, the kite is more or less at a right angle to the flyer. A slack line trick such as the Axel works when the nose of the kite is made to turn away and downwind of the flyer. Although the practiced move looks easy, I find it counterintuitive to yank the kite around while unloading the sail by walking into it. Too, I notice the rapidity of arm motion. It seems so easy to yank the kite out of the air. I like the animations. Once I've worked all this out during sleep, it should be able to do it. I need to fly "in" the kite rather than fly at the end of the lines.

Thank you very much Dodd. I have no experienced kite teacher nearby and your videos are very helpful for me :-)
