Make sure that when you pop, the board doesn't get behind you... In a few clips you popped and in the air the board was behind your body. But besides that your riding looked clean. Now start trying some backside W2W 180s.

already started working on them, not very consistant though, right now i land 1 in every 5-7 attempts. what do you mean by my board getting behind me, how do i prevent it?

work on TS!!! very important. also, i hated the song choice. i like the song by itself, but not in a wakeboarding video. and instead of the transition u used it looks better a lot of the time to just use straight cuts from one clip to another or to use simple fades. oh and it looked like you tried synchronizing some of the clips w/ the music. keep workin on that it will make your videos look 1000 times better. keep chargin it.

Very good! Your doing well behind your seadoo. Movie editing isnt bad either! As numbfoot said, TOESIDE is so crucial!!!! Also try some switch wake jumps. They are hard at first but after a while they arent all that bad.

the way you fade from clip 2 clip takes a bit long. you can ollie gr8 hmmm work on ya progressive egde, standing tall and keeping the handle in when you pop.. you are doing well since u hav literally no wake at all Very Happy

We take a camera on the waverunner all the time.. flagger has never fallen in the water, so I wouldn't expect him to start now Wink
