CM whats is a no comply?

Basically any trick where you take at least one foot off the board, place it on the ground and do a trick. Think boneless/fastplant sort of stuff.

To do the no comply impossible, roll along at a medium pace, take your back hand and grab the board on the heel side, close to your rear heel, arm between your legs. Like a Roast Beef grab on a wakeboard. Then (crouching) quickly slip your front foot off the side of the board and use this leg to push yourself into the air. If you had your rear arm twisted the right way then as soon as you leave the ground it should start to untwist, spinning the board around your foot impossible style. Let go of the board and it will spin back under you, land it and roll away.

Sorta dorky, heaps of fun and definitely Old School!

It took me a while to understand that but when i got my board and demonstrated it it made it easier, sounds pretty kool.
