i cant remember the last time i crashed on a tantrum, but ever since ive been attempting it with an indy grab, ive had sum of the worse crashes. my rotation speed is so slow i can never get the board under me, and rarely can i grab the board. any suggestions.? Confused

I'll I've got for you is the stock advice that anyone who has seen Higher Ed. will tell you. When you grab the Tantrum, you want to initiate the flip with your knees, not your head. Right off the wake, go for the grab at the same time you bring your knees to your chest. Really exagerate this motion. This is what will initiate the rotation. The rick is the same from there. You can look back behind you if you want to help spot the landing, but you don't need to. Hope this helps.

Basically, really try to bash your knees into your chest hard. Really exagerate it. This should definitley help you speed up your rotation and help you get the grab.

Later...
