lol:barrel: First Attempts on a Barrel Roll..

[spence]

whats better footholds or straps?

 

[Munkie]

I looked at the 2 in a money sense foot straps = maybe 60$ max and footholds cost quiet a bit plus cutting and hacking at the ski and so on and so on.. i will more than likely get foot holes once i get a real ski instead of my Kawasaki...And when i know that im good enough to spend the extra money..

For us Newb's who aren't getting plate to plate yet, is it better to push out with our legs toward the end of the roll, to try to push the ski into a stab? Seems like it might be more conducive to actually riding out of a half roll then just splatting? Or is this more likely to make you eat pole and hood? Landing on you head kind of sucks!

If I splat its into the chin pad due to the fact i put my head over it... *Hmmm its my lil pillow of relife" Hahaha not I ate the bars nicely a few times thanks to stock padding

a helmet is a good idea! i would be diving for lost teeth after my last attempts.. that big purple beluga whale nose isn't as soft as it looks!
