steve.... i dont know to many people who can do a 9 and not a 7.... if you do let me know.... but if they can really do a nine and not a 7... they should just go back to working on 360's... lol.....

its cool... but mobes are differnt than spins.. it might be easier to throw in an extra 180 on a mobe.... but between a toe 7 and a toe 9.... if you can do teh 9 and not the 7.. somethings wrong... if you can spin 720 degrees with the handle.. most think its easeir to just land the nine because you land leaning aginst the rop on ur heels......

AGin... give me some names of people who can do 9 but not 7... I will be suprised.... but most likely you wont be able to think of any

If I could land a 9, I wouldn't give a rats azz about the 7.

I bet there are tons of people who do a toe o/a 5 and can't do an o/a 3; or people who do a heel o/a 3 and can't do a heel o/a 180; or people who do a heel backside 3 without a heel backside 180. The list is endless. Agreed that it's probably better for your progression to go up the ladder and makes you a more complete rider, but most everyone has holes like that in their riding. I'd kill to throw a 9.

A couple years ago Nick Weinacker came and hung out with me, and he was telling me Shane Bonifay couldn't do toe 7s but could do the 9. BCP Mike

I can do a toeside OA 5 but not a toeside OA 3. The 3 is harder because you have to stop yourself and bring your self back on access a lot quicker which is a bit tricky and you have to land on your toes. I can see the 7 almost being easier than the 3 and I can definitely see where the 9 is easier than the 7. Until your doing them, it may be hard to conceptualize this.

Im one of those people that can do Toe 5's better than toe 3's, but Ive never tried toe 7's but 9's might be ezr for me, but as for heal 5's and 7's I can land 5's better but I feel more comfortable with that extra 180 for the 7, even though I can't land them off the wake yet, but Ive came super close, but I like doing 7's better than 5's
