|
|
These are my first attempts of a tantrum taken a couple of months ago. Unfortunately I broke my ankle on my 3rd try (2nd video). I'm just getting back to where I can ride again and mess around with surface stuff.
Anyway, got these videos from a friend recently and could use any advice or thoughts from you guys may have. Sorry, the quality isn't the greatest and the video starts midway through the setup, but it's all I have.

It's a trip flip edge bro; you're coming in and just throwing your head backwards.
If I was in the boat with you I'd say this;
Charge in harder on a progressive edge, square up to the wake and allow the wake to pop you straight up and then flip over. (Add indy if you like)
Kind of hard for me to explain, I just go balls out.
Check these pictures out...

yeah, I'm familar with the edge and it's what I was trying to do. A couple of things I thought right away when I watched the video were: what a panzy edge and I didn't square up to the wake nearly enough.
I'm always amazed at how different things "feel" when you're out on the water then what they actually are. I "felt" like I was squaring up and I definitely "felt" a trip throwing the board over....but video's a mutha |

Just charge in a little harder and square up and you'll nail it. Go big! |
