Baller handle pass.

Does anyone know of a video that has someone doing this? I'm not looking to try it, but I've never seen it done behind a boat. Might be fun to try on a tramp sometime.

I can't tell you exactly because I've never actually seen it. My understanding is it's a handle pass between your legs, which I assume means that you have two hand changes for a single rotation.

Apparently Parks Bonifay and Shane Bonifay invented it, but I'm wondering if they ever showed anyone with a video camera. Neutral

Jump to 1:55... First on a rail, then he other does that or grabs roast beef w2w... I can't really tell

Aw... yes, I think you're right. I appreciate it.

And, for the record, on this official Wakeboarder.com forum, I'd like to coin the term "Around the World" to describe a spin involving a Baller handle pass and an Ole 360 combination.

parks does one behind the boat in All or Nothing, an old vid he did when he was back with hyperlite

Christobull, you can't coin crap unless you land it.

Just the baller between the legs

holdsworth, if you can get patents without actually constructing your design or buy URLs without building a website, I am more or less certain this is how things work. Very Happy

You have to admit, it's a good name. In the meantime, I'll just have to start working on it myself to satisfy you old-schoolers. Don't be hatin.

bflat53212, I don't really need to answer that for myself because I don't know how you could do have the stuff that has been done. Half Cab Double Backroll? WTF? I can picture it, thus assume that it is possible. On a rail, you could add a regular handle pass in between the two and make it really tech.

Ahh...lilke a 007 or 009, can't remember which it is. So not actually doing a 3, but doing a 7, first time ole, next time baller. I got yeah! That would be sweet.

it would probably be easier to do a baller 3 then the ole because you have to be on axis to do a baller and off axis to do an ole

Ricky G does Tantrum to blind off the D-Up in All or Nothing with a baller handle pass and lands with the handle through his legs.

kent2010, this was my thought as well.

brinks, that's pretty awesome. Personally, the possibility of scrotum injury would rule out that as something for me to try, but it would be cool.

You could also do a Rewind which would probably be more difficult. TS FS 180, reverse your rotation into another FS 180 while passing the handle between your legs, then when the handle reaches your rear hand, perform either an ole FS 180 again, or FS ole 360 to blind. Now we're getting tech!

Christobull, Dont mean to hate, because I always scheme up crazy tech tricks that have never been done, but doing it on the water is a whole different game! More power to you if you try and suceed.

kent2010, not true. I do on axis ole HS BS 360s, and adam fields does hs and ts on axis ole fs 540s

LFADAM, oh no, I get that. I'm far from it at this point anyway. I think my current riding level verses the riding level you'd have to have to pull that off is equal to my skateboarding ability in real life verses my ability in EA Skate. I can do the most basic parts of both, but that's about it.
