Turtle The Turtle is in essence a Pancake done upside down, and again is used to set up for many tricks. Flying the kite from the bottom of the window to the top, pull BOTH arms behind you, step forward and throw both hands towards your kite. The kite will roll onto its back in a mirror image of a pancake (you will be able to see the back of the kite). To recover from the turtle pull both lines to return the kite to the nose up position and continue flying.
