Flattening ralys out.

I have been trying to practice railys on my trampoine but not on water yet. I can flatten out in the air but when i do i just fall and hit the tramp really hard. When i dont extend my legs i can do them but thats not right. any ideas?

i cant do it but i've tried it on water and on the tramp. on the tramp i cant do anything with it at all, but on the water i laid it out, started to come back down, and took a hard fall. you should try it on a wake skate if you have one. just gotta go for it.

its a bit harder to get laid out on the tramp..try trowing yourself backward it might work

I can do them on the tramp quite easily but not on the water. I havent tried one yet tho. To practice on the tramp just get a big bounce then throw your legs back and pull the handle down towards your knees to bring your legs back in. Ill post a video of it i find my usb.

best thing tho is not the tramp...doing it a on wakeskate will teach you the trick in a couple try...i promise that if you dont drop you handle while in the air and pull the handle down toward the water it wont hurt .... then when you land a few in a row on your butt, strap the board and you should land your first raley

peace

i've always heard that a raley leans more to being like.......having a rope tied to the top of a tree and run around the tree fast enough til' you can swing around. Not that doing that will help just that's more what it's gonna be like. i've tried on a wakeskate alot but still working up to the board.

well you have to remember, the boat it pulling you forwards so its gonna be easier to get layed out over the water

its getting back in time thats the problem (for me at least)
