Sick! I can't believe he pulled it, that landing was super sketchy. This sport is progressing so fast it's amazing.

gvw686, looks good. One thing, try to keep it wrapped around your foot

RUSSIAN, ya i know that one wasnt very good but its the only one i have on film, im working on getting it better though.

I don't think you can keep a wakeskate much closer to your foot, it's just too big.

Greg that rocks! Once you get it dialed in you should get some pictures of it...maybe a sequence and send to it to the guys at Subvert...maybe it'll be published in an issue. Mr. Green

Jester, you can keep it on there a little better, that wasnt the best on at all that i have done. i just wanted to put something up for people to see. but you cant do it exactly like a skateboard becuase it is so huge.

Well, you would know, I'm not much of a wakeskater. I just know that a board that big you need to compensate for the size.

Dood, thats sick. The first vid posted did look like a shove-it 3, but this definitly is impossible. So gvw686 how do ya do it? i cant see on the film where youve got your feet positioned and which way your pushing the board - looks like you lift your front foot out the way completly and do it all with your back foot?????

i think i pop off the insideout wake, pull my front foot out of the way, push my back foot down and then scoop it back up and around, put my front foot back on and hopefully ride away. i dont really think about it to much when i do it. and my feet are where they normaly would be.

Nice work Greg...

Have you tried a 360 flip yet??

K-dub, ya but its real hard to get the board around becuase its so big. im just trying to get kickflips, varial flips and frontside flips consistent

smlparksguy133, i have come close to both but i dont think anyone has done either yet.
