sorry, what I mean is when i'm in the middle of the trick (upside down). My board is sideways not facing the boat.
In the Wake Physics book, The Book DVD, and Detention Vol 1 in the middle of the trick it shows the wakeboard facing the boat. Here are a couple of links of what I mean.

Just wondering why my back roll's aren't like that
Thanks

| Going tip over tail is considered proper form on backrolls. The other type of backroll is called a mexican backroll, which is more of a front flip, where you go rail over rail. Instead of progressing through the wake like a normal backroll, you would pop and tuck on a mexican backroll. |

| Yeah, that looked fine, just wait a little longer before u initiate it and u will go higher. Its the right spin, but thrown just a bit early. |

That looks awesome to me. I wouldn't change a thing. _________________ Don't listen to advice from people who can't land that trick. My list:
HS+TS w2w jumps, HS+TS w2w 180, backroll
working on: I don't know, so happy I just landed backroll! |

That's a perfect backroll. Not a hint of mexican. You could get a little more height to add style though. _________________ You have just entered the twilight zone. |
