foothold slop

[Big Kahuna]

I have WCF holds, adidas wrestling shoes, turf on the top w/no padding, and 8mm padding on the bottom.

same setup I use except I wear Slippery Matix/Comp boots.

a tad loose but it is ok.

I switched from 24/7 holds to XFT for this reason. For a whole summer my progress was pretty slow. The following summer with the new holds, wow, talk about HUGE progression in my riding!

Before it was a conscience effort putting my feet in exactly right where I felt 'confident'. Now it is second nature.

I would fiberglass on some enclosures to take of your problem.

Take a look at Jetski Clinic's website... tons of pics on there of what I speak of.

cool... I will keep trying....

Right now I am trying "bronco 180s"... I guess they are the nose stab without a wake.... I try to watch videos to get ideas of technique but when I try them I just kinda wipe out... lol...

I hope to have better luck this weekend... I am trying the bronco 180s first because it seemed it would be the basic technique and from there I could go for more air off of wakes...

when trying these all you want to do is pop your waist to the bars and pulll with your legs all while looking down at the water or behind your shoulder...then once inverted you tuck to go under

Is a prehop necessary? The bronco 180s I see stoyer do in the wammer vid dont have a prehop or a wake... he just does and S turn and rips it... does it so clean... I will attempt it again this weekend... I should get someone to videotape me so I know what I'm doing wrong...
