I'm getting the grab on the crows but overotating the landings and landing on my ass. They also look and feel alot like an overhead 5.

The TS backroll to revert w/ grab i miss the grab but land the trick. It's hard reaching under the line to get the grab.


Can anyone solve my problems?

Also is anyone doing Big TS/BS 180's or 5's with grabs? What grab is easiest?

They key to grabbing all inverts, especially the ts backroll, is to go for the grab right off the wake.
Grab..Rotate...Land.

Well i just got the melan scarecrow, that was a sweet feeling. What i concentrate on is kinda ollying of the top of the wake with a good edge, grabbing and keeping the handle still throughout the rotation.

yeah you're right, keep that handle in as close as possible, as soon as you let go to go for the grab it slows down your rotation, so keep that handle tight, and good luck..
