yes, it could be challenging to takeoff in choppy water, you need to use the chops as a kicker. keep in mind a few tips for your next session in choppy water: 1. identify the current of the water and try to jump from the surfing direction that is more against the current. when doing so, you will find it easier to pop of the chop because you will have a better approach angle against the kicker. (usually there is one surfing direction that's easier to take off from in choppy water) 2. try to shorten your lines a little bit. if you ride a Core bar you can do it easily (for example if you ride 24 meter lines, try 22). this way, you can send the kite up faster (because it travels a shorter distance in the wind window). its helpful in choppy water because you cant really locate the kickers from far away, so you need to take off quick, as soon as you locate a nice chop that you want to take off from.

Choppy conditions are tricky, you have to try and find organisation in the choas out there and find a little valley that you can place a carve in. I usually find it easier to take a slightly bigger kite so I can ride slow and don't have to speed up in order to get the power. Also helps your to keep your kite a bit higher in the wind window so it doesn't have to fly that far up when you see a suitable kicker (similar effect to shortening your lines.)

Not really up to date with the current Olympics plans when it comes to kiting.
