      but i guess if i had to give random tips.. load the line, square your shoulders to the wake , let of with back had at the lip of the wake and follow your back hand as if you where trying to punch your face and that should held your head and shoulders go back.... ummm dont turn your head side to side that will make u spin... if you feel you flip to fast you can un-tuck to slow down and make sure to spot your landing and keep your edge for the landing

        Normally I just send my kids to their room until they are done with the Tantrum.

          Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. THAT'S relativity. Albert Einstein

            Wait, wait, & wait. Most while learning try to throw it before they even reach the top of the wake. Let the wake trip you.

              I've tried a couple and have massively under rotated. I don't think I understand the "follow your back hand" part. also, I understand you go one armed, but do you straighten that front arm or keep it bent? THanks.

                Take a good cut, and you want to hit the wake with more weight on your front foot than your back. Make sure you get good pop off the wake, before you let go with your back hand. As you let go, turn your back to the wake. It will be like doing a backflip on a trampoline or a diving board. You lead with your head and your body will follow. Keep your front arm bent, if you straighten it out, the landing can pull you over the front of the board.

                I can throw big Tantrums behind my Tige (and when I don't get my way), but I have a helluva time behind my friends Malibu. It's all about making sure you get the pop off the wake. The Malibu has a large rampy transition, where my 22v has a shorter more vertical wake, so I can just smash into the wake and it kicks me up. On the Malibu I have to ride the wake all up to get the pop.

                  keep your front arm bent so if u need to extend u have room to on the landing but what i mean as far as follow your back hand if your having trouble with the rotation i found it help if you throw your hand back as if you where trying to punch the back of your head and let your head follow your hand "like staring at it" it will help u throw your head and get better rotation if you get what im saying if you see me explain it in person it make alot more cuz you can see then whole hand and head jester
