Well after trying for about 3 weekends out, I finally landed my w2w on the skate today. I was excited...almost as excited as my first backroll on a wakeboard. Anyway...just wanted to share my gay happiness. Next stop...one footer.

Nice! I was trying that (no grab) until the board came a few inches away from my feet and on impact I did a split. Havent tried since. When I do, itll definately be with a grab!

I can't even come close when I try a grab. Oh well...at least I can land it pretty regularly now.

LFADAM, grabs are actually tougher. I find that the board can fly away much more easily. When you just jump you stay in one solid position. For a grab you hafto bend your knees and your back to reach down to the board and that causes a lot more movement all around. Once you do get a grab though, they are no problem.
