Yeah, I tried a few at the end of last season, I was rotating them, but I couldn't keep it under me. All of my lakes are frozen right now and I'm in Ecuador so I'm just waiting until I get back so I can start trying them again.

Come on guys... My spidey senses tell me this papa smurf is using sarcasm. Even if he isn't, could we un-harshen it up just a little? This is coming from someone who used to hammer on claimers. It's just not worth the effort. Cool

Hah! If you lean back far enough and unfocus your eyes the shadows do kind of look like a rotweiler.

yea I just never really looked at it, I just saw it over there to the side and didn't pay any attention. Then I decided to actually look at it, and I'm like hey, that isn't a rottweiler at all

I wouldn't really say you can kickflip numb, sure you've landed them but its not really a trick you can do consistant, unless of course it was the last 6 times you've tried one.

Dave... how are you coming along with them Kickflips?.. i'm still stuck...

Dave Barousse · Faceplant Joined: 10 Sep 2003 Posts: 5

I am still stuck too. I have come about as close as I can without riding away. If I had more riding time, I know I would have stuck one by now. Since I sold my boat at the beginning of last season, I have just been happy to get to ride the few times I've been on the water and haven't been able to spend time working on things. I just have to take it all in when I get a chance to ride.

I guess I could make excuses all day long, but to answer your question, I haven't road away from any yet.

I think the '03 cassttes are best for kickflips, as they are so heavy that the board has better momentum in the air and stays benieth you better, wakeboard construction ones seem to just get caught in the breeze to easily.
