My edging has improved alot, just cant get any pop when I go w2w. I can clear my wake, just not much height. I figured it would have clicked by now and be consistantly going out in the flats, but not the case
    About the same. It is my second year as well. However I didn't get out much till recently. I was the designated driver.

    Last year I could go w2w toeside. I switched to heelside a couple of months ago. And feel like I am starting over.

                Pretty much the same. I started a year ago last June. We didn't have a boat last year so I maybe rode 10-12 times. I was doing well and really progressing until Memorial Day weekend where I tore a stomach muscle and couldn't ride for a month or so.

                I was having a major problem getting pop on my heel side W2W jumps. It wasn't until 2 times ago that it finally clicked. I just decided to cut out, make a progressive cut in towards the wake without bending my knees much. When I hit the wake, I just focused on resisting the pop of the wake. It worked for me to almost flex or tense up my legs as I hit the wake. I had soo much more pop and time in the air.

                I got booted a couple times so consistency is the key now. I've been working a lot on riding switched and feel comfortable enough that I've done a couple HS and TS switched jumps. My regular TS jumps still aren't there yet. I haven't really tried to clear the wake yet TS. I need to suck it up and do it before the end of the season!

                I tried a couple board grabs last time out. This was the only pic I got and was probably my worst. Pretty terrible form but it was fun!

                  One of the best analogies I've heard for pop is when you are making your cut into the wake, as soon as you hit the wake just stand up like you are getting up off a barstool.
                  Waiting for another good one!

                    I was at a technical training last year with this kid in the Navy. We became friends on facebook and he posted this tonight. I personally think it's pointless to comment on political status updates on facebook. Clearly they are trying to make a statement of their own, but this one really has me trying my hardest to look past

Everything is guy says is doesn't come close to adding up, is shrouded in ambiguity, or is simply a misdirection of attention on what the Obama administration hasn't accomplished. Yeah, we're going to do a 20% income tax break that is revenue neutral without ******* up the fragile housing markets comeback by paying for it through limiting people mortgage deductions (among other things), which still doesn't conservatively balance out the five trillion in lost revenue. What the **** is America going to get out of this hole with? Hugs, smiles, and cheap talk? He better lose or we're all in deep ****.

                      Interesting five.
                      Wake Up or Stay On Shore!

                        Hope to still get out and try it. Also what Houston suggested.

                          Interesting comment over on WW. Didn't realize that it was that bad. I know the one at the reunion last year, original mold, didn't get high marks.

I used to come here every day to see what was being said, now it is down to every 2 weeks or less. That is sad, because there are a few knowledgeable great people on here, but sorting through the idiots to get to the good information has become painful.

                          Back on topic...I think that even on Tige owners, the Z3 is not well hyped as a wakeboard boat. That is mostly due to marketing. It is advertised as a surf machine, but there are a few vids of Ruck killing it behind a Z3, but he could do that behind a Ranger Bass boat. I would like to hear more from people who wakeboard behind it regularly.

                            It would appear to me that Tige is definitely favoring surf far more than wakeboarding. But that's only my observation at 10,000ft. since we only just got a dealer again only a few months ago.

                              I did that last time I went out and got the most air yet. Good advice.
