Double-Up: When the your wake collides with the rollers to double the size. When your turning make sure your already outside the wake because its hard to get out quick enough once turned around. Heres the best I could do:

try a triple whip. you can't get much higher than that if it's driven right.

Its hard to get consistent at triple up whips, I would stick with working on timing your double ups. Also, if you have a big wake, you may want to go less than 90 degrees into it, a t-boned double up can be pretty steep with little transition and its hard to time, plus the last swell is so deep. So the driver should make a normal double up turn, but hit the incoming wake at maybe 80-85 degrees.

Actually, that drawing, while correct in creating a double up, is not considered good double-up etiquette. Driving a double up that way will send rollers down your run, and also force you to have to make a quick sharp turn right after the double up, which is unnecessary.

Here is the correct way to drive a double up..

dammit, can someone make that bigger for me? That's the biggest I could get it to get on here. Something else I should save it as other than jpg?
