Tantrum to blind......

Ok, I've got layout tantrums and indy tantrums dialed. I'm beginning the process of learning to take them to blind. I have no problem with hs bs 180s, but I do usually do them slow, not late. It seems like the t2b is essentially a big tantrum with a late bs 180. Is this easier to get down tucked (as in an indy tantrum) or laid out? I've only tried one (got the board back under me, but i had bad position and wrecked) and it was laid out, I'm thinking of trying my next few tucked. Any tips would be apperciated.

I learned mine handle pass. I set my normal tanrum and then reach for the handle. It is pretty easy once you get it down. Lately I have been landing wrapped and then passing the handle right away. By learning it handle pass it will also set you up for Moby dicks too. Later, Mike

Thanks Mike. When do you pull the handle to initiate the spin? Early or late (before or after spotting the landing)? Thanks again.

When I learned them I passed the handle real earlier. If you get a chance watch the book it is called an up tantrum to blind. You just have to be sure you set your tantrum first other wise it won't work. Then you can wait longer and longer and this last weekend I landed one blind and then passed it right away.
