I finally rode one away! Thanks to everyone for their tips and especially to those who have had to the patience to circle the boat around me a billion times before I landed it!

Nice work in the 180! I am sure that sleep deprivation combined with a higher than normal blood alcohol level was the key to your success.

Glad you found some decent water on Sunday.

Thanks, everyone. I was getting very frustrated trying that trick so it feels really good to have finally landed one.

It's too bad I had to drive all the way to Lake Mead to land it...now, I have to try and land it again on my own turf

(wakehype) · (wakehype) **Join Date: Dec 2002** 03-02-2004, 1:36 PM

yeah now go for a ts 180, I think they are much much eaiser than HS 180

(dakid) · (dakid) **Join Date: Feb 2001** 03-02-2004, 1:45 PM

Okay, let's not get ahead of ourselves. Christie landing the hs180 is awesome. We all know how long that trick's eluded her. But, let's give her the right advice as to what to do next.

Christie, nice work on the 180. Keep workin' on it, to get is so that you can land it each time. In the meantime, get your toeside fundamentals down. I've seen you do 1-wake ts180s, but trust me when I say that landing a w2w ts180 will be easier if you've got your fundamentals down.

Good luck! Hope to see you this weekend!

Great Job Christie, it was hard to see you but I bet you were yelling her a$$ off huh?
Keep up the practice and you will wonder why you didn't pull that trick off sooner.

eyesman 03-09-2004, 12:48 PM

not too shabby christie. you know, that is the 2nd part of landing a scarecrow. you are almost there;) btw, i #$%&ing loved metallica last night. i didnt see too many other girls with a finger splint up at the fence with us. come to think of it - you were the only one. also NICE car!
