Do you ever pop a shuvit and catch it too early and land with the board in a butterslide and then pull out of it? Those annoy me to no ends, landing one of those is like a nasty mobbed kickflip skateboarding. They make me want to stomp the nose and faceplant in shame.

i dont have that happen too often, but what really gets to me is when i land really sketchy, like with both feet on the nose and you flail your arms around trying to not fall. i feel like some spastic bird, flapping away when i do that, and that annoys ME to no end. hmmm...anybody else feel like bitching about their riding?

Dave, yeah, out in the flats. Doing a shuvit to lipslide/boardslide on the wake is a lot cooler, plus it's on purpose when you do it.

yea i do that sumtimes but instead of looking at in a negative way i look at in a positve way because it shows u u'll be able to catch it when you do shuv 2 lipslide

wcwakeskater,

When you skateboard, you can really only grab indy or tail...But wakeboarding/snowboarding you can grab behind your rear foot(tindy). So to keep it true to skateboarding tindys are a no-no. Along with tailfishes, etc....

ah, i get it.
alright, no tindys!
