although i have never successfully landed one, i did get worked trying an early one that ended up roll2late90ish. I can say that you should start with a mexiroll, like the earlypass version, but will have to wait for an abrupt pull 2 blind after the majority of the mexiroll is complete. as you probably know by now the easier your cut in your approach, the easier that pull to spin blind will be. i have heard that spotting the wake first when the roll is almost complete before the spin helps a lot. good luck.

yeah i was riding mills on thursday off a sante (tbd boat) and with the gate being broken at the moment i snuck in there with my friends malibu and rode friday.
as for the roll to late blind i only tried a few but found it way easier to land down the second wake. right after i came around on the mexi i basically just put the handle at the small of my back and it easily went to blind. if you can land hs blind wrapped you should have no problems, ive just always been better landing wrapped on my ts.

being in the same location we should get together and ride.
