Lay off him.

On the other hand, lose the gloves. Please. They don't help, it's a fact. Blisters are good anyway.

What boat are you riding behind?

whoooaaaa, simmer. this is a wakeboard forum, not a hate forum. i dont know about everyone else, but i dont really care who is gay and who is a fat ass.

But honestly, gloves dont really help, and you may not have know it when you posted, but the way you wrote it, you were begging for a flaming.

seanmcd, please never wakeboard again. I really hate seeing people like u on the water saying that they wakeboard. If i ever see u on a lake or anywhere else tryin to pretend like u are a cool guy who wakeboards i might just beat this crap out of you. This kids out there havin fun and tryin to learn new trix and all u can do is make fun of him cuz u r so worthless.

you guys rag on gloves so much....... if you new your stuff you would have known that Parks bonifay wore gloves through an entire video section. So that makes him a Taco Bell Chalupa too. If you are smart you will know which video.

Oh, I love watching old videos.
Remember Shanes wakeboard pants?
And Gators... well his hair... Very Happy
No-one used to wear vests...
Things have changed a little.

Blindsider, doing inverts in spins is only partly about having the balls to do them. You have to be confident in your skills as a rider. If you feel you aren't ready to start trying more advanced tricks, then you probably aren't. You will get to the point, however, that you will see someone bust a big backroll and go "I'm ready to try it." When that time comes, you will know. As for now, the grab looks good, try to keep your head up looking where you are going or it will pull you down. Try to poke out your grabs some, do a tail grab and straighten your front leg. Try a bunch of different grabs, try grabbing the nose of your board with your back hand, its pretty tricky. Riding switch is also good, if you want to be a "complete" wakeboarder you need to progress in the right manner. Learn the same stuff switch that you learn regular, not only will this make your bag of tricks bigger, it will improve your regular riding, because you have to think about everything more when you are switch. Also work on 180s, just do an ollie 180 at first, then one wake, then two wake, then grabbed, switch, blind, and then 360.
As for what everyone else has said, gloves aren't neccessary unless you have a rough handle. I would suggest investing in a good rope and handle, I use the Straightline Amoeba grippa handle and Blue Blazer mainline. The handle is soft and a bit sticky, so gloves aren't needed. Also, the rope you have looks like it would stretch, which could cause problems when you move to larger tricks.
Hope this helps some, feel free to email me if you want more advice.
Later

Orzech, Parks has worn gloves in alot of videos, I think your claim in from HYPE were he wears thoes flesh colored ones. I know that stuff and I still rag on gloves. Check out the April "Homegrown" section in Wakeboarding Magazine they tell the guy to lose the gloves.

Orzech does knowing Parks worn gloves 3 years ago make you feel better. I must have hurt your felling , you must wear gloves to, you sound like a little pu$$y

Garrett and Aaron Hale that was not very nice , I am going to go cry in my boyfriend's arms now. There must be something wrong with the water down in TN.

Aaron for your info I don't own or ride a wakeboard, just my wakeskate. I suck and I have a great time riding and I am not worries about what you think. I am not a whimp you can ask anyone who knows me. I am the first one to try any rail or dock when all my friends whimp out. I know I am not cool and it was just a joke that uptight little girls like you sand in you a$$ about. In my opinon I think it is just funny that you think I care or am even being serious. You gave my wife a good laugh when I showed her this.

Phil I quit wakeboarding last summer to wakeskate 95% of the time. Everytime I strap on a wakeboard I try to stick a backroll, I always bounce off the top of the second wake thought. Phil so much pent up rage, did you not get enough hugs when you were younger . You really shouldn't call some one a puss you don't know.
