any tips? That was my 3rd or 4th try. I think I'm throwing it too much like a backroll and getting too inverted. Can you guys give me any tips on how to not get so outta control and maybe get my other hand on the handle?

thanks

ya, looks like a backroll with a handle pass. Your wake might be too small. Sometimes its easier to do with the trip flip edge. You also want to have constant rope tension or you will get yanked.

You need to roll your shoulders over the handle more, less inverted.

The trip flip edge works but it takes a lot of timing to get it so the board wont stick to the wake and the handle wont get ripped out of your hands.

I would just think about rolling over the handle more.
TS OA 540s are easier than a HS OF 3 or 5 IMO.

On the TS clip you are going out the back, you need to gain on the handle before you leave the wake.

Roll your shoulders over the handle more before you leave the wake and keep the handle in tight!
