Freestyle 1st Backflip Attempt. Stunt Hull

[Tmart]

Well, this was my 2nd ride on my new ski and my first ever attempt at a backflip. I'm still experimenting with my setup wake so I feel kind of iffy going into sometimes but figured I'd at least give a flip a shot. Don't think I did horrible but could've been better. Just gotta keep watching video's on youtube in slow motion! Feedback and tips are welcome, just thought I would share.

Ski is a stunt-ish hull (Waternuts old ski) with a 780 big bore, bpipe mod, and 13/18 solas concord prop. Everything else is stock

I know a couple things are obvious that I need to do, but once again, advice is welcome!!!

From someone that has never flipped, that looked like an incredible first attempt. Keep at it and I am sure you will have them down before the seasons over.

great first attempt. i think you approached the wake ok but you rode through it slightly that would decrease your height pull harder on the pole and keep tucked eventually you will un tuck when you get the hang of it more. try different speeds and run ups to the wake depends how much snap your motor has

nice job. come to alatoona or lanier and catch a 6 foot cruiser wake you'll be all the way round for sure!

Thanks guy. It's hard to get my speed exactly like it needs to be and also to not hunch over when I'm about halfway b/c it completely stops the rotation. I'm definitely hoping to full of a setup wake flip before a boat wake.
