    Default Threw a tantrum five times on sunday

    Didn't land a single one...but none of them hurt. My only limit is my wife...she hates continually turning the boat around.

    I threw five tantrums the other day too although my wife continually turned around and smacked me saying "Stop acting like a 2 year old".

    Okay, I attempted five back-flips. Depending on my commitment, I was landing on my toes, knees or head. Hoping to post some crashing and landing pics after this weekend.

    At what point does one start trying inverts?

    I was thinking I should be doing HS360 and TS360 while riding switch before getting into flips.

    Hey deafgoose.....just checked out your w2w jumps on another post and you are definately ready. Looks really smooth and comfortable. As long as you can pop, youo should be good - I think the spins and inverts are both on axis spins.

    I just got hs w2w this year. I can land a back flip land on a trampoline so I wanted to start with the tantrum that rather than a backroll. I am only trying to do them over one wake so max pop, min speed.

    Just started trying to build up an aerial (side flip) on the tramp so I can try the back-roll.

    I was able to learn a hs roll to revert before i was able to consistently land a hs 360. if you have a solid w2w jump with good pop you should be fine with trying flips. I found the backroll to be easier than the tantrum.

    Are you throwing the backroll (as the book says ) or letting the wake flip you (detention 2012)
