Almost I/O VFLIP story

Jama · Guest

SO me and my friend arn't that great at wakeskating. But, we do it alot and we enjoy the hell out of it so on with the story. Today my friend Matt was trying I/O shuvs and kept getting closer and closer. On his final attempt somehow he throws a VFLIP. He catches it and even lands but bounces off probably out of sheer mental shock. It was amazing to watch and he was killing himself that he didn't stick it. Anybody got any stories like this?

Yeah...that first look at the v-flip really gets you pumped. He'll be hooked now til he sticks it ....good luck! Anytime I get close on a trick I haven't landed yet it feels so exhilirating.

last season i did a shuv, caught it 90 by accident and turned around to switch, then did a layback touching down with my front arm and then turned it around so i could ride away,stood up and was like, that was the gayest shlt ever.

Coming in at the end of one of my last rides this summer I tried a I/O 540 shuv, spun it, landed on it, but I was coming in so by the time I'd stuck it the boat had slowed down so I just sunk down...
