I wanna do a tantrum, but I don't know if there is some secret to it, so anything you know helps, thx

there are a lot of threads on this...but what the heck, we can do another

1. come in on a long cut with a decent amount of edge/speed
2. before you get to the wake come off edge
3. as you go up the wake let go with your rear hand and begin up the wake
4. square up the board to the wake by turning your shoulders and board parallel to the wake and kinda toss your head back
5. as you leave the water flip it like a backflip on a trampoline
6. as you come down spot your landing and prepare to soak up the impact with your legs
7. ride that one away

given its not a step by step process that you have to think about as you do the move. just know that these are the basic things that you HAVE to do so be familiar with what you should be doing. just put them all together in one swift wake to wake move and you got it...

GOOD LUCK

but just get a bunch of speed then square up the board right at the end of the wake to get the most pop. Then throw everything up. Backflips on a trampoline help

kid, if you come in with speed and do that it should kick you right over

i tried a couple last week, and i had a really hard time waiting til the top of the wake to pop for some reason. so you get no kick or height, and i basically just flopped over and did a back dive into the water. waiting for the pop is key.

There is nothing to be afraid of one doing this trick. the first time i tried i didn't even toss it hard and i landed on my head, it didn't hurst mite i add. the second one i tried it didn't cut my hardest and i tossed it hard and i got to my stomack. now i either over rotate or land and kan't hold to rope hopefully i'll stick one tommorrow. You just have to try or you'll never no.
Good Luck

just try it. it only took me about 10 tries to land 1. the first time i tried it i landed on my knees. if you just go for it you wont land upside down or get hurt at all. its when you dont go for it when you get hurt
