Posted: Jul 24, 2012 1:28 am Post subject: Front roll |
|
|
I'm just getting back on the water after 10 years off. I'm slowly regaining my inverts; I got my tantrum and backside roll dialed this weekend. But I'm having trouble with my front roll. If you look at the video, you'll see how I land everytime. ALMOST on the board, but not quite. Somebody give me some pointers! I LOVE this trick and it's killing me that it's taking so long to recover.

Ignore the tantrum, I've got that mother dialed in now. \m/ _________________ 2005 Super Air Nautique TE 210

You didn't wait for pop. Threw it too early, no height. You also came untucked too early, which is evident by the fact you landed on your heels and slid out on your butt.
Good luck!

I think I do ts front rolls slightly different (I ride regular). Firstly I hold the handle closer to my hip (so my right hand is pretty much stuck on my hip), then when I hit the wake I throw the roll over my right forearm. You seem to do it more like a scarecrow and you'll prob find these so much easier. This video might help http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJ-EEx7OEoI |

I watched that video yesterday and compared it to my flip. I can definitely see what I'm doing wrong now. I'll try to fix everything this weekend. _________________ 2005 Super Air Nautique TE 210
