 Posted: Jul 23, 2005 10:17 pm Post subject: How 2 hold the handle |
 |
|
Hey i just started wakeskating the last couple days and i've sorta got an ollie but i was wondering should i hold the handle with both hands or is it better 2 hold with 1? I've seen many pros holding with 1 and it seems like everyone does but it seem harder 4 me 2 balance or hold on or something when i try 2 ollie 1 handed.
Thanx Zach |

| I hold with one over time it will become easier but since your just starting out use both hands. |

| 1 hand in the middle of the handle, some of my freinds are just starting out and they used two hands until i told them to use 1 and they seem to being doing much better |

I prefer no hands. Cut them off, they are worthless.

I say put the handle around your neck so you can do truck driver grabs.

One hand in the middle of the handle... it really helps your riding, if you think I'm lying, you're wrong... like wrongx10
