    Default What length are you riding at?

    Just figured out why I kep slamming into the 2nd wake. I was riding a 75 feet at 20mph. Shortened the rope to 65 and I'm ready to go pro - if pro means w2w hs 180s.

    So stoked when you can land a couple of jumps in a row!!!

    I typically ride at 100' doing about 31mph. It's the only way I can do my Super Duper Whirly Twirly Whatcha-ma-callit Trick and still go W2W, blind folded of course.

    Seriously I normally ride at 65' feet but I have been trying 70' here lately. I can hit a W2W every once in a blue moon at 70' so I am still working on it.

    I've only been riding 4 months pretty steady once/twice a week. Best trick for me is I just learned W2W HS 180 and a couple grab variations. I ride at 70' at 21-22.

    I am riding at 70feet at 21mph and doing W2W. I found this to be a great length for now. Much better then 65 feet.
