Second time out for the season and I can see that my time at OWC has emboldened me more than last year. I hit the 180 but was having comfort issue with going from inside to out and popping back to regular. Any tips, or just do it?

Transfer the rope from one hip to the other..and you'll just naturally 'glide' around. That is how I was taught. picked it up and was throwin' 180's (one wake) and surface in one day! good luck!

Yeah, I think it's a mental thing. Oddly, I feel weaker on the toeside, but the 180 felt easier there...perhaps it's not landing "blind"? You have made exceptional progress. I think the key is to just go for it.

good luck!

exceptional..naww..just determined to have more than 'w2w' carving and lipslides under my belt. *gets kinda boring for the ones watching from the boat!* I ride with a lot of really good guys who throw and stick big tricks! so that really motivates me! its wierd, I picked up ts easier than hs. I still don't clear the wake every time hs...but I sure do try! the surface 180's man were those tuff with big fins on! practiced alllll day one day with two friends...face plant..slap! OUCH! finally got em by the end of the day , then next time out, took the fins off and 'glide..glide' now they seem easy! the 180 air (1 wake) again, a friend showed me on the dock to switch the rope to the other hip ...and around I came. I actually prefer ts jumps ..i dont know why, it just feel more comfy.
