Try a few regular re-entry ollies and when you feel confident enough, go for it. Make sure tp do the ollie really re-entry so that you land downside of the wake. To be able to nail this one you have to do a solid ollie before you kick/flick it.

One thing that worked for me was to wait a little bit longer than you think before you kick/flick it. Also make sure to spot the board the entire time and just after you land on the board, look up to the boat to maintain your balance. Try to keep the handle close to your body the entire time.

Go out and stomp it! Smash

just keep that handle low, i tend to lean over my front less than i would out in the flats because of the lack of slack in the rope since you dont edge out....

pop at the sweet spot on your wake, which should be before the crest, and let her fly like i know you can...

basically i have a boat that is similar to yours in the wake size. yea its small as chickity china the chinese chicken.


so basically dont try and like ramp up the lip and like launch it. just chill near the curl and go up it a little and pop it like a flats kickflip.

so yes you are right. your wake is probably too small

jake .R., thats not a re entry kickflip though. pump the wake a couple times, cruise up to the top and pop it, and pop it a little frontside so that your nose will be pointed slightly away from the lip so you can ride down the wake and edge out of it.

canalskater,


true. but with a really small wake there really is no lip. it just kind of is like a soft lump ha.

so in essence we are all correct.
