Some kind of double?
I feel like if it was a spin he would have just said what it was.

Assume it's a trick that's never been landed. Harley's been spilling all of his tricks up to this point because they've all been landed before (if memory serves). My guess is a W2W Heel 10. Everything will be a secret until Wake Awards from this point on.

A 12 woudn't be a new trick though, since Harf already landed one of those.
w2w heel 10 is also my guess, or maybe a back 10.

I'm thinking a toeside back 9. I have been waiting for rathy to do this all summer after a video i saw of him landing 7's with time. I think if harley hit the 7 off the wake then a 9 off the dub could happen

matt sims 009 is insane. its kind of like shapiros orbital 5, it just doesn't make sense.
honestly if it is some crazy spin number I don't even care. these guys can spin so fast now and their wakes are so big that they just keep spinning until they hit the water. now a toeside bs oa 9 would be a different story. blind Pete 5 or regular Pete 7 would be pretty much the coolest sh*t ever off the wake. a Pete 7 almost would be a double cork.

Only Harley, Rusty and Steel have done W2W Toe 10's and I think I can count all of the guys who can do W2W Heel 9's on one hand so I'm 99.9% sure nobody has done a W2W Heel 10. I would have remember that one for sure.
I was thinking about it a bit more and I'm not going to be surprised if Harley has 3 or 4 tricks up for nomination. I could also see a Toe Back 9 and maybe a few Mobe 7's (KGB 7, Moby Dick 7, Back Mobe 7)

matt is a pro in every aspect. Hes concentrating on his education rather than wakeboarding. But dont mistake that for being any less of a rider than most on tour. Hes still a pro. Just not as active and most.

matt would probably tell you he's not a pro. he's a good friend of mine that i have not seen in a while unfortunately. like you said he chose to focus on school and become a doctor, but he doesn't get a paycheck from riding a wakeboard. that being said, he is arguably one of the most talented people to ride a wakeboard ever. you name it and he can do it, and probably switch too. he's been doing toe side backside off axis before it was cool. im still shocked many "industry" people did not think that a toe side off axis, osmosis, ole 9 w2w was not "cool"

I think what Dave was trying to relay was that slow personal progression can be frustrating when others seems to learn new tricks in their sleep.
I don't think it was meant to be taken so literally.

I am in Orlando now waiting for Harley to get home from Korea, I saw the video of the trick he landed just before going to Korea and it was insane. I know when Harley gets home tomorrow he is going to spend the next ten days trying a few more tricks as well.
Unfortunately I cant tell you what he did, I wish I could!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Whether it will win trick of the year or not is another story.

Though now the trick has in fact been called in the thread, I can't believe so few of you were advancing theories on double inverts.
Had I not known what I know, I would have been guessing double half cab roll/r2r, double back roll to blind, and double frontroll to inward blind.

Truth, for once, stop with cryptic I know more than you do posts. Congrats, you have an in with people in the industry. Want a cookie? It's just annoying cause you do nothing but sit there and play games with people "Oh, you're wrong. You're getting closer. Someone just guessed it but I won't tell who." blah blah blah. At least the others came in said, "holy sheit" and left.

Alright just because I hate this wakeboard secret trick stuff... AND because if people know, it will push him to land something else.. I am going to spill the beans.'
He landed a wake2wake grabbed back mobe 720.
P.S. its confirmed, no more guessing...
