Hello all, this is my first complete season of wakeboarding and i love it.. I got 180 wtw, shifty 180's, and a few other basic tricks.. And last saturday i was feeling confident enough to try a 360 and paid for it by landing on my back and knocking the wind from me.. A really bad experience lol.. so this brings me to ask:
how hard do i need to pull to get the handle pass???
I have read hundreds of tips regarding 3's but none mention this, any info will help greatly.. thx all. |

You'll really want to stall those out before you spin. Start the rotation at the peak of your jump and with your back hand, pull the rope to your lower back and get the other hand back there and grab the rope and it will pull you around the last 180.

| Also make sure you are using a contineous edge rather than a hard progressive edge. Makes it really hard to get that handle in with a hard progressive edge. Brother in law was trying them last night, land them way out in the flats but never getting the handle. Slowed it down, popped straight up, landed it no problem. |
