Hey i know there are probably a lot of other threads about this but none of them really answered my question. Can you W2W jump with a normal tie-off and a fairly small wake generated by a (dont knwo what year) Campion 170 allante? I cant seem to get all the way to the wake pretty much no matter how hard i try. Thanxs for ay help.

Ya dude. Normal tie-off: I'm assuming you mean no tower and are not talking about rope length. If you think you're progressive edging hard enough to get the speed/height you need to do a W2W, then you should check your rope. Check for:

1. If you have the proper, no-stretch rope. Sometimes you can lose just enough from rope stretch to cost you those last few feet; and
2. Check that your rope length is not too long. Sometimes riding at the full rope length puts you too far back from the boat where the wake is too wide to land a W2W.

Good luck.
