commitment.

practice off the water.

talking to experienced riders before attempting the trick.

3 things that will help you soo much.


my fav tricks are front mobe and slim chance

both inverted handle passes.

i use a bar i have hung up at home to practice them. then i take it to the water, and billy usually helps me land them.

and i don't give up.. if i try a trick, don't quiet land it, i will keep trying it over and over all day till i get it.

I always just try to go as huge as possible that way I have more time in the air to turn tricks... but thats just me! I also like to keep it just under 30 feet since I have bad ankles from running from girls

My advice... CRASH BIG. If you aren't going to land it at least make it entertaining.

As a matter of fact, I did my first trick yesterday.

Its a variation of a 360 but what you do is right before you land you crash.

Thats the only difference...
