What tricks are easier to learn off the double up?

Erik

Hey Gang,

Are there any tricks that you've found are just flat out easier to learn off the double up? If so, what are they?

I am looking to step my my riding this season, so I was thinking that batwing, OHH or other type of glide trick would potentially be easier for me off the double up. I would love to hear what you beleive the others are.

Thanks - your input is appreciated.

I almost got a 1080 off a double-up. knocked my ass right out. haha. you might get higher and more hangtime, but the landings hurt alot more. even when you land them.

I find it harder to time the d-up on raley tricks because your coming in at the wake much faster. I think its alot easier to spin because you can come in with a little less line tension and get some extra hang time.
from reading your other post like kyle suggested it would make learning a hs off 3 a bit easier.

you almost got a 1080? what a poser. I bet you cant even land a 3. I went to your myspace page where you claim to compete advanced but yet your pics suck...mmmmmkay?

OOOOOO Wake2face only on the forums for one day and already calling people out haha i see his reasoning though i checked out the myspace pics too haha.
the only thing keeping people dishonest is the internet!

i agree with shaggyboarder though, spinning like learning to grab 3's/5's was a lot easier for me to get down off the DU because of the extra airtime

the fall from that trick was the reason I dont spin anymore. u guys dont have to believe me. it doesn't matter to me. ask the guys I was riding with. they say 1080 but it could have been much less. these guys exaggerate, should have put that in. it probably wasn't much more than a 540, but it was deff more than a 360 and i landed (almost) same as I took off. screw u wake2face. go play in traffic.

I can only do OHHs off the double up. They are a lot easier cause you don't have to take a super hard raley cut and you still have time to do the trick.

Give it a week and it will be forgotten? We dont forget posers, you might as well create a new screen name and come up with a new set of lies. And this time put I real pic in your photo of an actual trick. Not just some crappy pic of you leaving the wake.....God you mom sucks with that camera! She filmed my waxing her A$$ and you couldnt even see my facial expressions.

Wake2face, at least you didnt hijack this thread just so you could make someone you don't know look bad

Obviously he cant show you a 1080 attempt, he got knocked out and vowed never to spin again...
