Well, the biggest difference between the R2B and T2B and their mobe versions are that you're not turning to blind on the way down. With both the KGB and Moby Dick, you spin going up, starting with a handle pass. So the initiation is very much different. _________________

on videos of danny harfs mobydick 5s it almost looks like he passes the handle before he is even inverted, almost like he turns backside and grabs the handle before he really throws his head back for the tantrum
only thing i think that can prepare you for something like that would be a tramp |

i went out with some buddies who can throw mobys all day. They say that is almost like a wrapped trick if you get the handle pass early. They just said intiate the backside spin almost like a whirly but more of a tantrum approach. Pass the handle early and the boat should pull you through the rest. Thats just what they tell me hope it helps. _________________ I represent NOR*CAL! |

| Yea get the handle and it will up wrap you. When i tried it on the tramp i was only doing a tantrum to blind with a handle pass but behind the boat it just pulls you all the way around. Havent tried it since i broke my rib a week and a half ago trying one, but good luck. |
