| have any of you guys realized when you go faster your tricks are a little easier, for example i can do 3 shuvs behind the cable i used to ride at that went 18 mph, then i rode behind a boat at 25 and the shuvs and ollies were easier, but the 3 shuv was lower |

Thats also why integrity has reshapable rail so that u can go faster and ride deeper in the water.

G-squadriderz, point for you.....
i think theres such thing as 2 fast and 2 slow. some lip stuff gets a little sketchy going faster. andshuv3s, are you sure your riding at 25 that seems a bit fast, check your speedometer. |

| i have found that my ollies are more consistent and higher the faster i go, but not to fast. when you go too slow it is hard to generate a lot of pop. |

Who are you riding with? Randy Harris? 25 is way to fast for most wakeboarders, If you are riding that fast you're also probably riding a good 90-95 ft off too...
I like to ride at about 21-23 mph. The faster you skim across the water the more surface tension therefore the higher up your board rides. (as stated)
