Its weird at first when i first did them i would do ugly tantrum2blinds but just do them over and over and you`ll know where your at in there in the air. I probably landed a whirly on water in less tries than i did on a trampoline.

just make sure you got your t2bs down really good then instead of pushing the handle to your back hip bring it across your face and lok over your rear shoulder.

do a tantrum, then once you get started, look over your back shoulder and at the same time bring the handle across your face and kind of around your head but not over your head, and you should feel yourself come around better...i've tried switch whirly's on the tramp and it's a little sketchy but i will work on it

You have to make sure that you get the handle in front of your face before you turn your head. Like phil said, its was harder for me to land my first whirly on the tramp than it was on the water. But now I never do them on the tramp because they don't even feel the same.

dang and i have my whirly's down perfectly on the tramp Laughing

is it complicated on the water? i've never tried them but it might be a hrader pull because of the weight on your feet

oh i see....ur supposed to throw the handle in front of ur face....the way wakephysics put it they said to throw the handle in the direction u were goin so i was throwin it off to the side and kinda behind me....i still havent landed it....its really complicated.

its not complicated, you go back, and as you take off you swipe the handle across your face and if you keep it there it will unwind you. try to get your bicept in front of your eyes.It isn't much more complicated on the water just harder to keep the handle closer to your face

Wake4Life08,
If you are going to take it to the water, make sure you practice tantrums with a really mellow cut almost as if you were drifting in. You want lots up upward pop with lots of slack. If you feel the handle being pulled away you are cutting to hard or not getting the handle in close.

lol....i hate you che blanc, welll lets see....ive parcticed the whirly today and i just did tantrums 2 blind...i dont understand how to "pass the handle in front of ur face"...more details please.

wakeboarder_360 · Posted: Aug 06, 2004 2:48 pm Post subject:

there not much to the trick you just start a backflip and make sure the handle gets in front of your face before you turn your head. almost like you are punching across your face.This trick is wierd on the tramp tho. when I did them on the tramp i was more vertical than che blanc, but when I took it to the water I was more horizontal .I say just go for it on the water. che blanc, can you whirly wakeboarding?

wakeguy2008, try downloading thats video he has in his gallery, i downloaded it a while ago, he landes it nice and clean Cool

go for it on the water! hahahahahaha i will if you will

wakeboarder_360 · Posted: Aug 06, 2004 4:39 pm Post subject:

I never said pass the handle, you just have to swipe the handle across you face and keep it nice and close. If you let it out it will get yanked out of your hand or turn into a tantrum to blind. On the water I take a pretty mellow cut, pop straight up and after I get good pop I pull the handle across my face so my bicept gets in front of my face and it unwinds me and as I come out of the whirly I get the handle down near my hips.

wakeboarder_360, i got them on the new kicker at owc, but i havent stuck it on the wake yet... but im close

whirlys off a kicker seem harder than off the wake.....try goin off a double up.
