Okay so I realize this quality isn't the greatest and you can't see the whole edge from outside the wake (that's what happens when you tell your girlfriend to film without showing her what to do).
I used to be able to land this trick, but as I'm just getting back in to riding now that I'm done with school, I'm trying to get this trick back. I probably did this and landed like that 15 times over the weekend.
Everybody talks about spotting the landing and I could never see the landing to save my life. Well, I saw a picture of myself upside down and my eyes were closed LOL. So then I started focusing on keeping my eyes open (which helped).
But, here's where I'm at now. I get to about 3/4 of the rotation and 1 of 2 things happen.
1. I let go of the rope and land the trick perfectly without the handle in my hand (like this video).
2. I feel like the rope will be yanked out of my hand or it will spin me almost backside and completely catch an edge.
Honestly, it could be as simple as just holding on to the handle the whole way, but I tried that a couple times and caught a few hard edges.
So any recommendations would be great!
