Why not learn how to go w2w first?

Btw: What kinda boat are you riding behind?

i don't think you should be trying raleys yet. that wake looks massive though. congrats on the wake.

yea, i woudl shorten your rope/speed up your boat. and work on your w2w jumps, toeside jumps, 180s and more easier tricks before trying that raley. Your still very far off from this trick and trying it is just going to hurt you. Work on some other stuff

dude u ever heard of a little thing we like to call "pop"?

you shoudl start off doing an Air Raley, not an Air Air Raley.

explain then....

Robert Harp · Guest

let's get the terminology straight.
Air Raley- done off of the wake, SUPPOSED to be W2W, actually into the flats.
Air Air Raley- done off flat water, damn near impossible. if you ever land one, you are officially a badass.

ok, to do a raley you are going to need a harder edge than just about any wakeboard trick. You want to stand tall at the wake, rise off of your heels, and get up there quickly so that you have the rest of your airtime to bring yourself back down. Keep your eyes on the tower.. this is the same rule as spins.. if you look down, you go down. Pull your elbows to your knees and pray. If you can take HARD ASS landings out into the flats--landing sitting in a chair, you shoudl have no problem with this trick. but notice that you can't even clear the wake HS, or even get three inches TS. A Raley is not where you should be. Take your time, dont rush to get a big trick list. good luck.

The first one you started your cut in before the rope even got tight and just railed it and then let off... nowhere close. Listen to these guys. Work on your w2w first, throw some big ones with long grabs. You should be able to float into the flats and I don't see that here. Don't take it personally if people tell you you're not ready, trying tricks that you aren't ready for is how you end up getting injured.

i can do big w2w and when i go out ill put some on here on my toes sides are a little better than that ill get some actual footage of me riding and put it on here to see what yall think i should do

Robert Harp · Guest

yeah, mine came out harsh and I'm sorry but think of it as constructive criticism. I want people to tell ME the truth even if it means putting me down.

ontrider · Ladies Man Joined: 30 Jul 2003 Posts: 16491 City: Russia

If you can, then take the same sort of cut at your raleys Idea

thekpan · Outlaw Joined: 11 Jun 2006 Posts: 168 City: Dallas

yeah i can clear it most of the time but i wasnt really trying to i have to try becuase my wake is extremly wide as you can tell my friends malibu i can easily clear.. and i was worried about throwing down my raley not the w2w..but this weekend ill put a riding video together and see what yall think i should be doing

dude, if ur wanting to pull the raley. First, you gotta let the rope out longer, and get consistant w2w jumps. Second, you gotta take so much more cut (cutting heelside helps me), and stay in that cut all the way through the wake. Then you make sure your line is as loaded as u can get it, throw it way out, and the second you feel that rope go snug in your extension you pull under hard. It sounds and looks like your pullin under too early. make sure when ur somming down u get back in hs position or u'll catch the toeside edge, and thats pretty much it.

I'll give you this, you've got nad. You can't even clear the wake heelside and your attempting raleys and landing backrolls (not even wake to wake.) You have more sack than most wakeboarders so I'm sure you'll get all the tricks dialed someday cause at least you're trying them.

i can jump wake to wake geez tomorrow ill get a vid and put it on here for all your disbelievers

Keep goin at it. Do the tricks you want to learn. Hopefully ppl that know how to do them will give you some advice and not put you down for not being able to do other things. Do what you want. Your riding for fun anways.

Partyb · Posted: Aug 28, 2006 3:56 pm Post subject:

I appreciate your enthusiasm, but you have a long way to go before you should be doing raleys. Stop trying them before you hurt yourself. Get back to us when you can go w2w toeside.

It looks like you were doing some crazy roll rather than a raley, you need to be getting more air.
