I was just looking at the new WBM and check out the pic of Randall in the readers poll, he's like 8 feet up, already past the wake still going up and out on a sick melon grab, Ive never seen anyone other than him able to do this on any trick, its insane, one of a kind daaaaaaaaaamn

ya it is a sick shot and the sequence 2 and yes I will battle with anyone and say that NO ONE goes quite as big and still with sick style as Randall, straight up his methods, 7's, crow mobes, blind 180, front flips, front mobes, indy tatrum 2 blind ect.... haha

I've never seen anyone go bigger than the Vandall on any of those tricks, who??

I've seen peeps go big on em but Randall just goes a little bit higher or a lot and a couple feet further out into the flats than anyone else....

Dirty, Lyman maybe. Steven sic shot, what was the rope difference between the tube and Randall's?

Lyman does go huge and his switch stale front to fakie and maybe his blind 180's, he is a sick rider that goes huge definetly

He's only about 2 feet in front of me. The Vandall is hard to catch from the tube. Here are a couple more shots for all you Vandall fans:

In Transgression, there is some footage of two boats driving even about 20 feet apart and Randy charging one boat's wake and landing on the tranny of the other boat's wake. Probably 40-60'+ distance in the air. Super huge and sick.

That last shot, switch melan crow or crow mobe I'd guess, is cool. That Malibu wake looks mellow, wonder if it's poppy.

man, I think he actually flew past the second boat's wake. he's insane. Lyman goes huge, but I don't think he even compares to randall anymore. It's insane. but I think they're both amazing.

Who went bigger in their prime...Vandall or Shapiro?

There was an ad (or just picture) in Wakeboarding Mag a few years back of a sequence of Shapiro doing a layed out tantrum to blind where the boat was coming straight at the camera. From that angle you really got an idea of how big he went and how far out into the flat he would throw stuff. Insane.

I think these two guys are about the only ones I've seen throw Pete's in the flats. They are both crazy!

I'll admit, however close it may be...they both might just go a little bit bigger than i do...

(masonwakerider)

I dont think shapiro ever rode at the line lenghts that randy does so distance wise i'd give it to randy. Any one know what randys set up on the malibu is rumor was 4000# at 28mph and 90ft of line behind the 210. The lsv is 23' so seems like you'd run more weight and more line.

thanks Hahn, those shots are sick.

the double boat shots in Transgression are amazing. Definitely the highlight for me, along with the closing indy off the dub

Rusty did something like that (The 2 boats) in Bent Felix. I havnt seen Transgression, so i dont know how big Randy's was, but i know Rusty did that exact same thing in Bent Felix

(pierce_bronkite)

I was looking at that same picture last night and thinking the same thing. Damn he is up there.

I also think his blind melon 180 sequence was PIMPPP!

I have Bent Felix, this is completely different. No comparison, IMO.

Actually it's a mute to blind. The photo is in my profile.

Yeah, i just knew that it was 2 boat'er. I'll have to check out Randy's fersure.

Randall and Shapiro both go huge and Randall's in his prime going bigger than ever now, but I'd have to say that Randall goes a little bit bigger, I think he rides a longer line so even if it looks like they're going as far as each other remember Randall a couple feet further back

and Ive seen that tantrum to blind of shapiro's, its huge but Ive seen Randall go just as big but do and indy tantrum to blind, not to take anything away from shapiro, he's the man and one of the best riders of all times
