Description

Well... I finally went for it! It was a day of being pumped, then right back to frustration.. I tried it a number of times saturday, on two different rides. On the first ones, I actually think it looked pretty good, however after that, I couldnt get over the line tension, no matter what I would try.. Never made it past getting yanked back to tant to blind. I think that I may see from the video we took, one big thing I was doing different in the first and second sets.. And that was keeping the handle in closer on take off. I think that allowed me enough to get it around for the first rotation.. Attached I have two of my closest tries from the first set saturday. On the second one, I almost think if I just would have hung onto the rope, I might would have been able to ride it out. I feel as if I am making it about 3/4 then my rotation is slowing way down.. Im not sure if the line tension is making this really hard for me or not. The first thing I know your going to say is look at my shoulders.. I know the front is higher, but just cant figure out how to do it any different. This was (the tantrum) the first Invert I learned years ago, and just have created this horrible habit of crazy hard line tension that I dont know how to beat.. I watched the dealing with tension vid yall put out about 100 times, Im going to try to keep the like in even more next time. I tried ollieing off the wake, but just lost all my pop with that. Is it like an actual ollie? Or just popping off your back leg? I didnt try popping off just my back leg. I know this is a ton of rambling, maybe line tension isnt even my problem at all, thanks again guys for the help.... Im sure you know this, but bump it to 720p
