Taylor, roll down to Acworth GA. for the opener in May, your close. Bring what you got and have some fun, meet the guys and see what the tour is all about. It will be a good expirence &amp; you can see first hand what you need to work on.

Sorry Taylor, i didn't mean to scare you from competing. yes he did win. <BR>if you've got fives and some grabbed inverts solid and you live near a stop then definitely get amoungst it! <BR>as Randy said, it will be great to meet fellow boarders and get experience.

Dave, where did you watch the video, is it online?

moby dick are really easy the trick is to hold on with two hands off the top of the wake and not to go for the handle to early also dont start the 3 until u reach your peek but having the handle will start the rotaition as you come down pull the handle across you body to your front hand it helps coming down to keep your cheast up strong so you can land on your edge
