Nice pics Nick...looks like you got booted on those kickers. Did you land any of those jumps that you posted pics of?

homedawg678 12-30-2008 3:25 PM

Booted is right it was freakin' CRAZY. But I didn't land any off that one but I landed one of another that I didn't post pics of. It was a more mellow kicker and I didn't get nearly as much air.

Tell us more, was it what you expected.

incredibly hard to get used to. I had no clue what to do on my firstattempt starting the rope jerked my shoulder which still hurts but after I finally got used to everything and how to turn on the corners, I didn't wanna leave. I am going tomorrow and am gonna get some more pictures so look out for that. <BR> <BR>Also, in the picture where I am upside down. Yea it looks like a tantrum but it was completely by accident. Don't tell anyone though

The cable is a blast. Once you get used to the big kicker, you can boost big. <BR> <BR>Cool pics

Any tips on hitting it? I am going back tomorrow.

get low and firm. the "kick" is like nothing you've felt on the wake so you're getting tossed. <BR> <BR>Firm up your legs and bend your knees to take more of the momentum upward with the kicker. <BR>Also ,edge out to the kicker, then flatten off. will give ya little more control on the kicker.
