question about raleys

I can do raleys everytime on a trampoline. When I was talking to a wakeboard instructor, he said they are even easier on water than on a trampoline. Is this true and i should just step it up and try it out?

they are easier on the water if you have a big solid wake jump. It is easier to perform the trick on the water because it pretty much just happens. If your wake jump is nice and high then go for it.

how high do you have to go for a air raley to look decent?

fifeman-
how do you throw your legs back on the tramp? I've got a tramp at home and I can't figure out how to get my body up in the air like a railey.

it took me a while to get it down perfectly. i started off trying it but wouldn't get all the way flattened out, and would just kinda pull on the rope and get my feet back down so i wouldn't fall. but now when i do it i just get a really good bounce, and right off the bat you should throw your legs back up in the air kinda like if you are diving off a diving board, and keep tension on the rope, and once you are flat in the air, just pull hard on the rope and bring your feet down. its just one of those tricks you gotta practice over and over to get better at.
