S Bend

I'm trying to do this at OWC since I don't have a boat to ride behind. I can do raleys solid off of the cheese wedge and so now I want to try an S bend if it's even possible off of a kicker, any advice would be appreciated.

strychnine,

Its kind of similar to a boat S-bend. You push off your toes or release off the wedge and kick it out into a raley, then lean your head and try to lick your front armpit (your eye will be on your shoulder) and you will rotate and make sure not to pull it in until you see the water again, if you pull in while your still upside down you will have trouble finishing the rotation. Hope it helps. And just so you know a kid named Whit Finley at TSR is trying triple s-bends off the blue booter. He has singles and doubles consistent. Good luck, Hunter

Its crazy how common sbend's are at the OWC. I havent been in a year but it seems like someone was sticking sbend 720's off the 3rd turn of the park side when I pulled up.
