After many tries this year I finally landed a toe 7 yesterday. I am pretty pumped about it. No video yet but hopefully I will get one soon.

I was on the boat, and it was SICK! Congrats Nick. I predict another one landed this week.

RIGHT ON MAN! Welcome to the toeseven Club! I must have tried a million tried before I stuck my first!

Question for you guys sticking toe sevens..... <BR> <BR>What do you do differently from the 5? Extra tug to the hip before you spin the last 180? <BR> <BR>I was thinking about hucking a few before the season ends to see if I get lucky. why not? <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/uhoh.gif" border=0>

Stuck another one today on my second try. I am super pumped and feel like I might be able to get this consistent. The thing that helped me was slowing my cut way down. Before I was cutting in fairly hard and landing on my board everytime but the line tension would pull me back on my heels. I'm no expert on the trick by anymeans yet but it has helped to take a slow, wide approach and pop straight up. My goal is to have at least one on film by the end of the week. Any suggestions on throwing a heel 7. Flat or off-axis. I can hit both fives pretty well.

That sounds like exactly what I did to learn the 5. Are you spinning flat or OA?

OA
