Landed my first railey... on accident

[OuachitaWaker]

So i was jumpin the wake on my reg heelside real hard just trying to get big grabs into the flats, my buddies and i were seein who could get the most air (none of us have ever done a railey) well i kept goin bigger and bigger and i was just edging in like a crazy man on the last few jumps and it just happened. I didnt do a full extention but i did go super-man style hangin on from to the rope. Everyone said it looked like a railey with my knees bent.

IT WAS AWESOME. all i remember is edging out of control (well not out of control.. but on the verge of it I WAS HAULING BALLS AND STOMPING THE WAKE) only i didnt really stomp the wake on this one it just happend like my feet just went out behind me and i was lookin down the rope i noticed i was hella high in the air and i rememberd people saying on here to bring your knees back in to the handle and i pulled it off.

yeh um i dbout it was a proper raley, but it might of looked a bit like one

[wildride157]

why care wether it was proper or not it prolly looked cool as stuff

[FLBigDog]

sorry dude, you dont just land a raley on accident

[LakeIolaLuke]

FLBigDog, no, you can, I've done exactly what he's talking abou ta few times. If you never let up on your edge all the way through the wake, you feet just go right out behind you, and if you push down on the handle, they come right back beneath you.

LakeIolaLuke, thanks, i know it wassnt a proper railey but it looked like one and people in the boat were like,"sweet railey thats the first ive ever seen in person" so it looked alot like one.

wildride157, thanks ya it looked "cool as stuff" lol

FLBigDog, whats with the hate

whats with everyone with a stick up their ass, the point of this topic was that i did a railey type move and i was excited and wanted to share. peace

[FLBigDog]

OuachitaWaker, the hate is strictly from the fact that i guarantee it looked nothing like a raley, probably more a messed up fashion air. Believe me, you cannot do a raley unless you are trying to do one. I have been doing them for a very long time and in the learning process i convinced myself the same thing that you did, but once i actually sacked up and did a raley, IT WAS MUCH DIFFERENT

umm i can do a fashion air bro and it was nothing like just bending my knees and throwing the boar behind me, my body was laid out going out like the rope (superman style)

dont come into my topics talkin crap, either say "way to go" or click "next topic"

OuachitaWaker, sorry i just think it is a bs and if you are going to claim a raley, then you were trying a raley and landed it, there is no not trying a raley and doing a raley

[OuachitaWaker]

ok bro you win. Im a liar. I never did such a thing. I dont know what came over me. wow my e-cool points just went down.

[bjeremi]

Not trying to hate because I can't do them either but from what I have read on here about Raley's is that they are very quick, quicker than you would think. I just think it would be kind of hard to extend out remember at that point what you read about on a wakeboarding forum and then apply and land in the amount of time you would have to pull off the trick. On the other hand you got no reason to lie so more power to you and congrats.
