haha nice problem, maybe you're going 30mph and the wake is too small. Or you could always lengthen your rope so it's harder. The real 1 wake question is how do you jump inside out? Is it a progressive cut or an ollie?

bevelboard19, Not everyone is good. I'm sure your quite the pro wakeboarder yourself. He wanted advice not criticism.
beasoldierprstn, when you cut outside the wake, cut back in on your edge and when you ride up the wake stand tall and pop out your legs.

o, guys i didnt mean how do u jump the wake... i meant is there anyway to go up the wake, get some air then come down on the SAME wake. instead of jumping all the way to the other wake.

i can already do w2w i am just looking on places to expand besides grabs

Yes that is possible. Kind of like doing a half/quarter-pipe where you go up and down on the same wall. Not sure how to do it though sorry.

Yeah, I've tried some of those. Kinda like Watson in the beginning of boombox. Francois Roy hits a 1 wake 3 in Metrenome... it looks cool in my opinion.

On my attemps I cut really slowly into the wake and then try to do a big ollie and instead of pushing straight down I push away from the wake to counteract your slow cut. I think you have to lean out before you ollie instead of ollying and then leaning. I have an easier time if I do a ts cut instead of hs too...

Don't know if that helps ..

Switch your edge right at the wake and push in, give it a hard ollie and you will get good pop. Be sure to keep the handle outside the wake, that will help prevent you from being pulled to the center of the wakes.
