Hi Netspeed -
You're right. When that5 kite surfer does his flip, it throws motion tracker into a spin!
From my limited "playing" with Motion Tracker, it seems that it works best when the subject moves in a predictable way. It also prefers a subject that contrasts with the surrounds.
In that way, the kite surfer doesn't tick all the boxes... but it is possible to track him. Examples here -

You'll see a bit of jerkiness with the words & the arrow - that's because I
tried to edit/correct the tracking.
Cheers - Tony
