Imagine... going up to the wake getting massive pop, you kick your foot off the nose getting a nice flip. You catch it half way around grabbing indy and boning it riiight out. You even poke it out a bit, you start to feel gravity pull you back to earth, you quickly finger flip out. You stomp it nice and quickly on the downside of the wake, you ride cleanly away knowing you've just landed the first dark indy on a wakeskate.  _________________ Llamas are better then Alpacas

No I didn't Greg. But wouldn't it look good?
Wakeskater has it right its a half flip to indy to half flip out. And No I didn't make it up, but I've read about them. _________________ Llamas are better then Alpacas

| That would be crazy. Kind of reminds me how Bob Burnquist can seem to pull any flip to grab trick even if the flip hasn't finished it rotation. |

I doubt it. You would need to be able to w2w kickflip to indy fairly consistant. _________________ Llamas are better then Alpacas

| You might not even have to be conistant at that, you can just do half a kickflip. |

Yes but doing half a flip takes a bit of tuning. You are used to botting the board and watching for the grip tape/foam not the bottom of the deck. I would say you would have to be experienced at w2w flips. _________________ Llamas are better then Alpacas
