|
|
Hey all Im ready to try my first tantrum. Just need a little advice. On my cut when I reach the wake do I just act like Im doing a backdive? In such I want to look up and backwards or do I look over my right shoulder? I ride left foot forward so I am approaching the wake from the right side behind the boat. Any other help or suggestions would be appreciated.  |

1. Backdive? No backflip
2. Do a search...I lied do a scroll, 9 threads on the first two pages of the trick tips forum, do you have a wheel on your mouse? Use it .
3. WB.com trick tips, complete with quicktime video. No need to wait for advice that is already there. _________________

yes look up and over your right shoulder. You got square up to the wake, or you will not make the rotation. _________________ UCSB Waterski Team |

| can you do a back flip on a tramp? its the exact same rotation as that, so concentrate on how your body rotates when your on a tramp and thats how it should feel on the water. |

| look directly up and throw your head directly back for the best looking rotation. Do some backflips off of a dock, or on a trampoline to get the rotation |

| as your approaching the top of the wake flaten out a little bit and let go of the handel with your back hand... this helps to set you up for the rotation. Then you just go into a back flip |
