    Good article and tips! And it's true from what I've witnessed. Saw a dude pulling inverts, making it look easy, behind a little 15ft smokercraft with a 40hp outboard on it 2 summers ago on the river. Clearly he knew what he was doing and had the right form/timing/experience.

    I don't know if I've ever had the right form or fundamentals. Something about teaching an old dog new tricks...
    So when is this "old enough to know better" supposed to kick in?

    Just when I think I'm "getting it" I see pictures/video of some dude getting much bigger air out in the flats. I suck.

    Tried more of my front foot this weekend. Feels different but I think it will help out a lot if I keep working on it

    Getting more comfortable with it and feels a lot more consistent. Can also control how far I land on other side too, which is nice. Take a look

    Looks good. A noticeable difference in forward/back body position and your transition from out to in looks nice and smooth, way better.

    Keep both hands on handle until you leave the wake. Shoot to keep both hands on until on way down.

    We call it the rodeo when I let that hand go. Thanks for the tips Todd. You mind if I keep giving you update videos. Your advice was awesome.
