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. Very Happy

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 Very Happy .
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.

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
