I've pretty much got jumping over the wake down and I want to try new things while in the air. I'm attempting grabs, but I can't figure out how to do a 180 in the air. what's the best method of pulling of a 180?

Do a normal w2w jump and while you're in the air pull the rope to your back hip. Make sure you get your hips and shoulders around and land edging away from the boat. You should be able to do 1 wake 180's before attempting them w2w.

okay ill take you through this step by step.
first go to the trick tips forums page.
next scroll all the way to the botoom and look for the the page 2 link. this will take you to other pages of old posts that may give you help on this subject. okay scroll down just a little bit okay there it is hs fs w2w 180s. i think 2 pages of posts should be enough to get you there. if not use the search function for other posts on the trick. there are quite a few.

yeah, there's plenty of resources on this site, but anyways...
try and do a normal jump, at the peak of you're jump, let go with the front hand and this will naturally pull you around for the 180. Land edging away on your toes, otherwise you'll slip out. Next, try a method or nose grab. I actually learned mine with a method grab...

would a method 180 be easier than mute?
