Roger that Elmo
backloops are easier to get your head around....... easier to start, scary to land
still can't fwd ![]()
So tell the truth Greenie...
Did my SMS on Saturday have anything to do with you going for one three days later?
backloops... feel awesome, till the last second when u start to over-rotate... and u go "oh... s**t"
[... So I got out the old F2 wave board and put on the Gath]
dont worry about your board.. until you start over-rotating them and land on the
nose -make sure your footstraps screws are done up tight too.
Nah he wasn't worried about his evo... he used his F2 to really look the part if he was doing Euro tricks ![]()
I made a vid this arvo but the camera got ripped off the boom on one of the forward attemps. I did a number of them but wasnt as dialled in as the other day
Kinda nervous as Rider was on the lookout watching![]()
This was the only footage I got. I put it on YouTube but its saying that the song I used by Primus was not allowed to be used.
So check it out on Exposure Room. Enjoy![]()

I'm dead keen to give it a crack as well but keep finding excuses for why not to. Just lately, I got a new Ezzy panther 6.0 so my current excuse is its a nice new sail and i don't want to wreck it (also it may be a bit big to be trying forwards with for the first time). Last weeks excuse was a bung leg from a bad landing in Greenhead (which is still the case). If I keep this up, summer will be over and I'll be pissed that I didn't give it a go. I'm just going to have to HTFU and do it whatever the cost. Is a helmet advised? Is there much potential for melon bashing? If so, there is another excuse cause I'll have to buy one.
The first loop IS the hardest ,
I was afraid of all the things mentioned above , i just tryed them one day and it was awesome!!! didnt actually land any , bailed out mid air heaps of times and havnt broken anything yet
did it with my new 5.7 and my newish 95lt board so yeh... did dent board a little tho so probably best to use one u dont care about...
JUST DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!![]()

Smokin' stalled fwds GREENY... You fellas were hammerin' it today... loop after loop after loop, and nice wave riding on the way in...
was that u doing the pushys on the northern section, Puggy.
very impressive or someone got the same sail as u ![]()
how windy was that,,, Pwd on my 4.2 yay.
haha... I am claiming them...
NAH, that is DaveT... We have the same coloured sail. He goes pretty hard
I don't
Dave is easy to pick - he is noisy! He can talk to you the whole way through a pushy if you are sailing within 100 m!!!
Will be around again today - and Dave... We were planning a down winder from City Beach to Watermans(ish)... But, I just got a message from Dave claiming soreness... sook... I am still going to try for the down winder...
Where were u guys sailing? I couldnt get to the beach - other commitments. Will be down this arvo for sure though.
Yeah Nice work guys, I was driving home form a blast on the river after work, heading towards Mets as I was about to tuen up the hill and there were those loops again...
Awesome stuff guys out at Metts yesterday...
Hey was hoping you guys could give me sum advise as to wear are sum good spots to head out. Ive only been in Perth a short while and have only experienced Pelican Point.I havent done much wave sailing but want to get into it so any spots you know of that would give me a good platform to start learning wave/freestyle tricks would be alsum.
