My good friend, and next-door neighbor, landed his first three shuv today.
He landed a shuv the first time he ever wakeskated, and now, 4 months later, he's got body varials, front and back one's, shuvs heelside and toeside, i/o shuvs, and now three sixty degree pop-shuv it's.
He is a beast. He used to be in super into soccer, but the bones in his feet were messed up and he had to have surgery on BOTH of his feet, leading to him having to wear casts on both of his legs for a good long time. He also has an issue with his hips, and the docters told him no more soccer. But now, he is not upset about it at all, him and I take out the john boat as often as we can and he is just progressing like crazy. I cannot tell you how stoked he was when he stomped a perfect 3 shuv today.
That is what wakeskating is about, just having an incredible time and loving every second of it!
