i don't think so. I could be wrong though. i know gerry nunn ddoes a TS OHH in detention and murray says that's that is impossible and a S-Bend is probably harder then an OHH say i'd say probably not.

You can do it on the cable. Someone even did a toeside double s-bend. Im pretty sure it was Hintenburger(sp)?? at cable worlds in germany.

Sure is alot different though when your behind a boat trying them....instead of a cable. I think the mechanics are different = more difficult IMO

i'm not sure if a ts s-bend is really possible. it would look like a layed out crow or backroll depending on which way you do it

I met a guy from the UK named craig who told me that he has been doing TS s-bend 900's on the cable and has nailed a coulpe behind the boat. But then again, this could all be beer talking

Thers no way someone has done a tS sbend 900 behind a boat or on a cable without it making it to wakeboard mag,a video,or even on a news section on this site ..I think its impossible anyway let me see it talk is cheap IMO.. Smile

Graig that was his name, and he was from Aus, but was spending a lot of time in the UK

Turtle McNamara use to do TS S-bend 5s, but they had a FS spin unlike regular S-bends with BS spins. There is a sequence of it in an older WBM.

It's pretty short sided to say that if you haven't seen it, it hasn't been done. There's A LOT more happening that you actually see. Just because it's not in a magazine or video doesn't mean it's not there. Just because it hasn't been done doesn't mean it's impossible either.

derrick, that's true, but with something as amazing as an s-bend 900, I'm pretty sure that whoever did it would tell *somebody* in the media.

that sounds kinda like a big worm. i could see that looking like a ts sbend 9

A big worm is a frontroll with a fs 540 and not a 900.

i bet if a pro worked on it for a day, they could do it

A Big Worm is a 900 in a way. The frontroll is a 360 on Y axis while the 540 is spinning on X axis. So TS SBend 9 would look very much like a stretched out big worm.

thats what i was talkin about thirlee, and i know what a big worm is bluefish, if you've ever seen one done then you'd see what i'm sayin

I just saw a video of one, and you are right, it does kind of look like a TS s-bend 900.

a 360 is on the x axis while a 540 is on the y axis... what are you talkin about? if they are both spun on axis they would be on the same axis,,,,, as for the ts sbend...... in shaft and shafted check out shapiro's ts rolls to revert, they are pretty close to what a ts sbend would look like

better a bass boat than a no boat
