    Default The "Official" Old Guys 360 Attempt Thread

    OK, there's a couple of us, shall we say, "experienced" fellas who have a 360 contest brewing (love that word) for the good part of a couple of seasons now. We all have some decent attempts but none of us -- to my knowledge -- have actually ridden out of our 360 attempts. So here now is the official thread of the bet. Post your attempts here so the whole community can laugh together. AARP membership not required.

    You're getting very close. Not me.

    Getting most of the way around.

    You're talking from this season right?

    I'll have to mount the GoPro on the boat next time so you guys don't get motion sickness...
    So when is this "old enough to know better" supposed to kick in?

    I think we started talking about this last year in August. My year ran out with weather, football games, cheerleading crap, etc. Got a late start this year too and weather has not cooperated. Did get to surf a couple times last week though.

    Awesome job Pat, I find if you can get your boat driver to just back off on the throttle a bit as you start the spin it may help you ride it out .

    I have a board with 4 fins in the rear. If I pull 2 of them, will it make it easier to spin?

    In theory yes. Less resistance, more squirrelly, etc. The 4 fins will give you more speed to drive towards the boat from back in the wave.

    In reality, for some of us anyway, it doesn't seem to matter if I have one fin or five, skim board or surf style, I still cannot ride the damn thing out...
