Pete Rose

Was going to put this in the trick tips but will most likely be riding tonight and really wanted some help

When I throw the trick it feels like everything is going good until about 270 on the rotation... I just stall out

doesnt matter if i two hand it until late, one hand from the start, try to grab.... I always just sping quickly then die out right at the end.

any tips?

The Pete Rose is a trick that I have struggled with for years, but only recently have started to get consistent. I had the same problem as you. All would start well, but the last bit of rotation just wasn't there.

Make sure you keep the handle close to your mid-section through the entire trick. When I do my roll to revert I tend to concentrate on the grab and not mind the hand on the handle. I could get away with flapping that arm on the roll to revert, but for the Pete it is key to keep it close. Start with the handle close and finish with it close. Once it gets away I always get stuck.

Tip: consider shortening the rope and slowing down the boat. The shorter line will decrease your required crossing speed (less line tension) and the slower speed will help you commit to the blind landing. Good Luck.

Dude I cant do a pete rose behind the boat but doing stuff on a trampoline has always made a HUGE difference for me... Im sure you have pry already got it on lock on a tramp but just a suggestion.... When one of my boat tricks gets dirty, I usually hang on the tramp just doin it over and over and I can usually clean it up....

No tramp for me...but the guy a few houses down has one... i'll hit him up...

I'm going to be getting out on the water in a day or two and see how it goes
