Wakemaster_17, Are you trying them in the flats? Think about this, if you throw it straight out in front of you, when you jump the boat is going to pull you back towards the wake. If you throw it in front and in towards the boat a bit I think you'll have her.

Raven, check the forum. Wink

just pop and scoop it with your back foot. this trick is 90% your back foot. use your front foot to control and level out the board. work on some fakie shubits too and doing it stationary to help you out with board control.

Wakemaster_17, this is kinda weird and but it helps me land them. i kinda bring my back knee in towards the center of my body alittle bit more than an ollie and then pop it from there.

Slyder, nollie back bigs are the best.
