First thing i have to say is good job going with the slowmo and second Tom Petty Rocks

So back to your question, i think the "sloppiness" your talking about are your landings. You seem to land with your back foot alot sooner than the front, so either you can level out consiously, or you need to start ending your tricks in air earlier so you can level out more.

There are other users that are better than me and will give better advice due to their more advanced level of riding and experience with the tricks.

so here's what I have to say:

...your elephant, crow, and tantrum seem to be a little flat, rather than inverted. ie. parallel to the water as opposed to upside down. The mexican roll has a bit of a rodeo hand going on, if you don't feel comfortable holding it with the handle, try a grab.

That's just a few quick things I thought could be cleaned up.

BTW, thank you for slowing it down so I didn't have to watch it over and over and try to pause in the right places. Music was also a nice touch.

Not that I can do all those tricks, a couple, but I ride with a lot of awesome guys. On some of the heelside stuff, raley and backroll, you left a little early and you need to keep both hands on handle for backroll. On ts tricks I think the problem is with your ts form. Your chest is bent over and leaning towards the wake. Keep chest and head up and lean away from boat and line, not towards wake. I do the exact same thing.

on the elephant, keep two hands on the rope much longer and cut much harder so it looks cool. for the raley, you have to actually take a raley cut, the crow is fine and tanny is fine. try putting a little more weight on your front foot on the raley and take it huge, no one wants to see a wake to wake raley

with kyle on this one. It looked like you were pushing your hands up for some reason instead of naturally letting them come up after you let them out.

For that tantrum try squareing up to the wake a little more and looking more directly behind you when you throw it. Remember you wana do it just like you would on land. You sorta looked toward and threw it more towards the boat.

For the crow, don't come in bent at the waste so much, it causes you to break at the waste and go more out in stead of up. Think about haveing that chest up.

The front and elephat are pretty orginal, i have never seen anyone do them like that and they look pretty cool but like kyle said two hands on the handle. I don't let go with mine until about 2/3 of the way around.

Everything you landed looked solid though Exclamation

deepbaywakeboarder, Maybe you should invest in something like Detention or Higher Education. It would do you more good.

deepbaywakeboarder, what he's saying is you could see all the tricks and then you would know what they're all called, so no it wasn't pointless.

and since I'm in a good mood... Confused

- raley
- backroll
- scarecrow
- ollie 180 (j/k Laughing )
- tantrum
- elephant
