So, after at least 150 failed attempts at a backroll, I finally got it down and nail them consistenlty. I have no desire to go through that much pain for the 360 so I am enlisting the help of fellow wakeboarders. On to the next trick - 360's. Was trying them this last weekend and they really dont seem that hard - wait until in the air, pull the handle to hip with both hands, look over shoulder, spot landing, land, look cool to everybody in the boat, have hot chicks hanging all over you for the rest of the day. Simple...right? The good part is that I have most of it down. Couple problems though: 1. I missed the handle pass every time. Its getting ripped out of my hand (I think - not positive - I just know that I dont have it when I land) 2. I am typically over-rotating (450 - halfway between a 3 and a 5 haha)but not always. Does anybody have any advice as to what to do to control the rotation better and get the handle pass. I kind of feel like I was spazzing and trying to get around too fast. I was thinking that I just need to slow the whole thing down (not pull the handle to my hip so hard) but will that work????
