 |
|
So I got the basic grabs down and wanna try to tweak a few. How about some help or should I just go to the harder grabs before tryin tweaked grabs?

| I think the easiest tweak grab is just an indy but straighten your front leg out and point it back to the wake you just left. this is easiest on heelside. |

| If you compete, I would concentrate on the harder grabs which yeild a higher point value. A tweaked grab is often open to a judges interpretation of difficulty...but will rarely be worthwhile if the grab has a low point value to start. If you're just riding for fun at this time, I would probably give the same advice. Once you get some of the harder grabs down you will be more comforitable with tweaking anything - its a win/win situation! |

Appreciate it. Also, I'm workin on jumpin toeside and some surface tricks. Any suggetions to make this easier because toeside just doesn't feel right! FYI: I started wakeboardin 2/3 the way through last summer and have not been able to get on too much this summer. Had some legal problems.

| Toeside is always more difficult to learn. Just trust your edge, lean back on the rope, and go! You'll get it.. |
