LOL about taking up waterskiing after too many back edge falls. This is basically the story of my life. Your videos have me stoked about wakeboarding again though!
+David O'Caoimh Wakeboarder brilliant cant wait to see it. I like both but I think the late one would be easier to grab it longer, so i would say the late one :)
I cant ride in the blind position! I can cross the wakes in the cuffed position no worries but as soon as I take the front hand off I will tic tock. I have tried to max edging, hinging, rear leg weight and reaching around fully. I have tried leaning at slightly different angles. knuckles are tight to my back. Ive looked to the shore and to my tail. Seems impossible. I think it might be due to my thick physique and shorter unflexible arms. Will larger fins help me? I use 0.8" fins on a 150 murray pro. 230 pounds.
Hey David, so ever since watching this I have tried inside out and ollie blind 180s all summer. I can ride handcuffed and also do a backside 180 (with handle pass), but every time I try a blind 180 of any kind I get pulled back through blind to my original starting position. So I pretty much doa blind 180, then when I land, I do a blind surface 180 becuase thats how the boat is pulling me. Is this a common problem?
Kevin Dry, taught me my first aerial tricks at the first cable park in South Africa more than 20 years ago. What a legend
Great video as always! My son and I have been getting back into wake boarding this summer and you have helped us out so much. Thank you!

Would you recommend nailing this 1 wake first and then going wake to wake?
Going to be trying backside 180's next summer... I guess I will have to settle for some snowboard backside 180's til then... Thanks for the tips.
+SteelAlchmey Sick!! At least you have the snow!! :)
