dude you need to just hold on to tha friggin handle, that should have been landed easily

to me it almost looks like a mexican backroll

agreed...if you hold onto the handle you would land it perfectly....u get a lot more pop than most ppl i see learn these so it should be pretty easy for you to get

with that much pop, keep both hands on the rope for added "not letting go of the handle" insurance!! You got that shiz man!!

i noticed you let go with one hand just off the wake. this caused you to square up with the boat making it look like a mexi roll. try holding on with 2 hands for a fraction longer, or ideally for the whole trick. you should get it next time!

You landed it yet?

looks exactly like mine before I landed it the first time. Just don't go quite as big and you'll put it down first try. You're over-rotating a bit.

I saw that last fall coming...

Try not to let go so early or, in other words, try to hold your edge a bit longer. That will give you the extra bit of high and there won't be the chance to hit the wake with the nose of your board. Also, try to get a bit (only a bit) more speed (that will cause you to "fly" a bit wider...into the flats).

The price to pay is that there will be a bit more pull during the rotation...

Good luck dude,
