Trampoline Raleys Gone Wrong?

So I've been trying lots of raleys on the trampoline trying to get them to look nice and steezy but whenever I pull in, I get pulled forward almost off the trampoline.

Is it what I'm using for rope, am I doing it wrong, or is that what's supposed to happen?

Thanks

are you using a stretch rope? that could be pulling you forward. if not, just jump backwards as you let your feet go behind you.

ohio_wake_2008, Yeah, I'm using the rope that came in our old van's emergency kit. It's pretty stretchy.

I tried what you said and it feels weird but I'm not getting pulled off anymore Very Happy

maybe the rope is not non-streach?

wakelover11, The rope is anything but non-stretch Laughing

boarder_boy, I'm using a skateboard with shoes duct taped to it.

it's either the springy rope, or what you have it anchored on. I've seen trees bend somewhat and create a spring back when people do tricks like that on the tramp. But sounds like the rope is causing the problems

i have the same problem. I herd the easyest way is to do it off a wakeskate.

Hah, I wouldn't do the wakeskate thing. I hate swimming for stuff Mad
