Pete Rose...so close yet so far

[kyle]

ok here is the deal, been working on pete's for about a week. i got the grab (method), got the rotation, got the handle pass, landing on my heels then im slipping out on my BUTT (bad). please someone make me stop this, let me faceplant on this trick like you are supposed to so i can land it. i could not be any closer, any small little pointers would be oustanding...gracias

[Adam Greer]

i have been learning this trick as well. I found i land on my heels when i try to throw the trick to hard off the wake. When you just relax and float it off the wake you land flat or on your toes, but if you huck it a little you over rotate the flip part of the trick and land on your heels. Good luck man, i have come so close a couple times just have to put it all together soon. I was surprised how much the method grab helps with the rotation, but anyways, Stick it!

yeah it is amazing how important the method grab is, if you dont grab it, you might as well just dive in the water cause you are gonna eat shizzll. yeah i definately am throwing it too hard because i almost did a pete 5 today on accident, but im gonna land it tomorrow, guaranteed

[Fauker]

I learned them almost like a ts slim chance, no grab or whatever which was weird because I learned a ts roll2rev. with a method grab. Ive since started relearning them the right way... And yeah it's really easy to over rotate and slip out on your heels if you huck it too hard. I make sure and ride all the way up the wake, look down at the board for the method grab, then turn and look over my shoulder for the landing...

good luck with it

[kyle]

im landing it today, riding at 3ish, hopefully there will b positive results

[kyle]

p.s. it will be grabbed and stylish, i will have it no other way

Ill do some this weekend, yall let me know how you fair

I plan on learning a tantrum to blind thi weekend too, can either o fyou do em? care to help a brother out?

[Adam Greer]

early handle pass, or a true tantrum to blind?

[kyle]

didnt work, hurt my knee, but tomorrow is the day, im having the driver give me a throttle chop, and that will do

[Fauker]

real tantrum to blind

[Adam Greer]

hehe, i have been working on that as well, i can do the early handle pass, but for a true tany to b, take it wake to wake. Try to float it as much as possible, once you see the second wake up side down and you feel you are about to drop out, pull that handle and turn you head to blind. It should help alot to try some wake2wake, blind 1's to wrap each time before you try it.... good luck, i sorta got away from trying that maybe i should go back to that.........after i stick my petey tomarrow lol, good luck kyle and fauker

[kyle]

tomorrow is the day for all of us, we will all prevail....i wish i had a video camera cause this shizzl is gonna happen
