Ollie or maybe not

Short jump or...

I've had several of those headache spills. One of my best/worst my friend's said they heard me hit the water and the music was playing where I could hear it. I usually have one big crash per day. Sad

Just to make you guys feel better. As you start progressing and getting better on the board, you will find that you don't take nearly as bad crashes as you used to. On easy stuff you just learn how to not fall hard, but if you get into learning mobes and stuff like that, there really is no way around munchin' it really hard.

Chad H, You'll have to come over and ride with us sometime. I'm planning on buying a boat soon. A friend of mine has a nauti for sale and if he sells it I will have to buy one. I have a friend with a X1 too so I should be on the lake a lot this summer.

ilubronix, Man I hope so, I eat advil like candy on the lake. I had a problem with keeping my arms up when I started learning to jump. I've fixed the problem now and learned to keep them down and use the rope better.

Haha these pics are great. They remind me of me when I first started. Don't get discouraged though you should progress fast. I went from not being able to get outside the wake without falling, to doing backrolls in a year.

johnaulick, man, that one did not feel good. Catching a heelside edge from in the air always kills

man, that couldn't have felt good, those are the nice whiplash falls that stretch your neck muscles all out...

Zach, all you had to do with that one was put one hand behind your head, flick your hair and you'd have had a fashion jump!

Great stuff!

ilubronix, that is very true. When I started crow mobes, I actually only slipped out on one or two then stuck it, and every one I fall on now is just slipping out. Heel mobes I just miss the handle or slip out. Pete's either catch an edge or fall forward. Never had any bad crashes for a very long time.

Keep that rope by the hips, hold on with both hands, and look over your shoulder. BR = easiest trick in the book.
