All i say is the broll can consume your state of mind!!!just go 4 it if you dont go ul never know plus youl learn what not to do!!
ps i hav crashed more than anyone but keep at it...

exactly!!! I think I land one in 10 at this point... most of mine are inverted subs... but you have to just keep trying.

U guys are awesome-I believe I have enuf input now to barrell roll my John Deere. LOL
I'm really hopin this don't go as bad as stabs did-beat myself and my ski to hell and back for 5 months only to get close-SJBRIT comes up to me at Lanier and has me stabbin in 5 seconds. Sure be sweet if the rolls come in about 20 hours of constant tryin. Then its off to backy land.

screw the Ultra, I hate that thing-thats my wifes ride. Its been a little better since I put a plate and grate on it. I'm all about the stand ups.

Alright, I have rised this thread from the dead!! I am DOING my barrel role this weekend!!!! Head down, throw to the left? I got this. I ride in the surf so I should be good if I stay away from sand bars, sing "Holy Diver" in my head to get me pumped.

Werd!...

Trying rolls and big stabs with floppy poles is risky IMHO - I find the pole goes up as you invert and you end up between the pole & the hood! :aargh4:
Go stiff - its really the only way!..:Banane01:

how can you stiffen your pole? I'm a newbie sorry, just bought my superjet!

Also do you have to have the foot holds to roll?

"Hey Carl", "where you going with that superjet?"


"I'm goin to do some barrel roles, mmmmmmm, and I'll take a few more can of that potted meat if yer got any.

Just got through reglue-ing my stock mats. Carfanatic, I dont think you should have to have foot holds, I get a good enough grip with my feet to do some good nosestab/subs.

I used to do Rolls (off boatwaves and 3/4 on flat) with lifters when I first got my ski. Backflips in waves too- its possible, but now i look back and say "man i was young and dumb"
