Big fan of the seat belt

larkin 07-06-2004 9:40 AM

I'm a fan of grabbing roast beef and a big slob 180 looks pretty good.

eternalshadow 07-06-2004 9:44 AM

Indy stiffy

Crail is a pretty tite grab

missjade 07-06-2004 12:10 PM

Crail is my favorite right now. If I could get myself around for a nuclear, that would be my favorite.

salmon_tacos 07-06-2004 1:43 PM

Joe, <BR> <BR>I actually think grabs where the board is totally horizontal like your first picture, have a lot of style. Same with spins...the tightest spins, IMO, are either completely on axis or way off axis. Anything in between just looks sloppier to me. It seems to me, therefore, that the appearance that you are standing or spinning on some invisible table is something to strive for.

bjgreenewb 07-06-2004 2:53 PM

I like grabbing the tail in 50 degree weather <BR> <BR><a href="http://www.wakeboardindiana.com/portal/DesktopModules/EditPictureGallery.aspx?username=mygreenmonster.co m&amp;GalleryName=Wakeboarding&amp;galleryid=6&amp ;picid=83&amp;PageIndex=0&amp;PicPageIndex=0#Pictu res" target="_blank">http://www.wakeboardindiana.com/portal/DesktopModules/EditPictureGallery.aspx?username=mygreenmonster.co m&amp;GalleryName=Wakeboarding&amp;galleryid=6&amp ;picid=83&amp;PageIndex=0&amp;PicPageIndex=0#Pictu res</a>

skippy 07-07-2004 3:26 AM

tell me your'e joking about the tindy, I suppose you also love the tailfish. <BR> <BR>eek

shutupandboard 07-07-2004 5:40 AM

Salmon, I COMPLETLY agree. <BR> <BR>Shawn, Nice pics. <BR> <BR>Joe, That pic has MONDO style. Plus it's huge. <BR> <BR>Ewan, What's wrong with tindy? I think it's SMOOOOTH. <BR> <BR>What's the secret to grabbin stalefish anyway. My stalefish are very tailfish.

wakestar8878 07-07-2004 9:16 AM

Jeremy - Thanks bro. When I do a Stalefish I try to push my back foot out as far as possible. Which puts the board in the perfect position for when you reach down for the grab. Hope that helps a little. <BR> <BR>Joe - I have to agree with Jeremy, that is HUGE!

goose69 07-07-2004 10:14 AM

I like the roastbeef myself. Some shots of me doing a little shifty roastbeef grab. <BR> <BR> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65919/177697.jpg" alt=""> <BR> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65919/177698.jpg" alt="">

jarrod 07-07-2004 10:21 AM

What's a roastbeef with the front hand instead of the back??

wakestar8878 07-07-2004 10:31 AM

Here you go J: <BR> <BR>Trick Name: Roast Beef <BR> <BR>Description: Rear hand heelside grab, between feet through the legs <BR>Category: Intermediate <BR>Point Value: 500 <BR>Tip on performing this trick: This one shouldn't be a hard one to learn. If you're getting good air and landing pretty consistently, the Roast Beef is a great trick to start progressing into board grabs. As you jump the wake, bring your knees to you chest, reach through your legs with your trailing hand and grab the middle of the board.

stephan 07-07-2004 10:36 AM

I like a big HS Method, a TS Crail, poked back Indy &amp; that's pretty much it. Slob 3's is probably my favorite trick &amp; I'm finally getting comfortable on Method Crows, they all feel really good.

wakestar8878 07-07-2004 10:44 AM

What up Steve, the best shot I've seen of a Method Crow is of Tino Santori at the Ft. Worth Tour Stop. The photo credit goes out to Bill J. on this one. <BR> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65919/177714.jpg" alt="Tino">

wakebordr11 07-07-2004 1:06 PM

I'm all about tweaked tail and stale fish grabs, poke it out as far and long as possible, and shifty slob/mutes are cool too, try to rotate almost 180 then bring it back

malibuboarder75 07-07-2004 5:24 PM

<BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65919/177812.jpg" alt="tailfish"> <BR> <BR>nice tweaked tailfish

Ahh grainy picture. nice grab

thane_dogg 07-07-2004 10:45 PM

Jeremy - Thanks for posting that pic. I clicked on this thread and I was like "whoa, that's me!" <BR> <BR>Randall's method or a Shifty Tail Grab are my favorites. <BR> <BR>

shutupandboard 07-08-2004 6:13 AM

Wondered where you were. I always liked that pic when you had it as your profile pic. So when he said what's your favorite grab. I thought, Thane stalefish. <BR> <BR>(Message edited by shutupandboard on July 08, 2004)
