Is anybody out there still doing Slurpees? Man, back in '97 I thought those approaches were going to take over.

as ou cant tell by the responses no one really does them any more. i believe a slurpy is a wrapped toeside backroll with a backside three but when you wrap it you have both hands on the big handle. kinda hard to explain.

Yah I thought for sure it was going to take off too. Kinda looked a little off axis like because of the spin.

Yeah, it's a wrapped TS Blind mobe. But the wrap predates vandal handles so you take off in the cuffed position! Cuffed take offs are unique to wakeboarding, they should be done more often!

dave briscoe still does them. or at least when i rode with him he still did. only two weeks ago so i'm sure there are people doing them. they are insane looking.

I thought it was called a I'm an idiot & Balls Laughing

. I bet more people would be pulling them if they hadn't changed the name originally performend by Zane to the Slurpee.

it was originally called "I'm an idiot & balls" by dave briscoe and then zane changed it to slurpee. at least thats what dave told me.

a slurpee is a wrapped blind pete rose, it is dean lavelle's signature trick

It's not really wrapped though. You approach the wake with both hands behind your back (like mid-handlepass).

Are there any other tricks out there with this 'cuffed' or hands behind back take off?

I'm an idiot , Ha that is funny. Do all four letter words do that, or are there different sayings. I may have to make up a new log in just to test it.
