|
|
| i tried like 4 last time i was at OWC, and i got surprisingly close. I've got the rotation good, and i catch the board like 4-5 feet off of the water, but i cant take the landing. Any tips on where to catch it so i can ge the landing? How much to bend my legs? Thanks |

if your on your bi land on the bolts and absorb the shock with your knees, i cant do kickflips off kickers but thats just generally for any landing _________________ Team Dream Sleds
