Same here, I can't get this trick to stop. I can load the line fine, but end up going over or out the back. I know they say keep your eyes on the boat or something, but nothing seems to help the momentum generated by the cut. <BR> <BR>(Message edited by bflat53212 on May 06, 2008)

to get it to go back I turn my shoulders away from the boat just as get to the trough. <BR> <BR>To get it back down I just think about clinching my hams and keeping my heels to my butt the whole time. <BR> <BR>You have to come in to the wake low and front foot heavy or you'll fall over backwards, or butt check once you land. <BR> <BR>if you let the handle out it's hard to get back down. <BR> <BR>Get ready for some hard crashes until you get it. <BR> <BR>check my profile pic.

Landed it today!!! 4 times! I definitely can agree, keeping your elbow in close is important, otherwise it is really difficult to pull back in, and it will hurt your pec if you do end up getting it back in. I'm still having trouble getting the grab, but I think I'm just reaching for it late... I need to get it before it gets too far behind me.... I also think that having the board in hand will help me control the trick better.
