    Finally Landed the 360...

    Actually I'm Lovin's son (no pun intended), and as some of you may know, we have been competing for what seems like forever to be the first get around on the 3 and stay in the pocket. We've had the rotation down for a while but have never been able to keep surfing. Well, I am please to annouce on behalf of Lovin' Powell that the competition is officially over , and he is a little embarrassed to admit that I beat him (he is still in denial). Here is the video of the winning 3. http://youtube.com/watch?v=_MH-o2bIxZ0 After my dad sees this post I might not be invited back on the boat so that could be a video of my last surfing run ever, though I certainly hope not . I must thank any and all of you that gave us advice and tips, if it weren't for those who knows if we would even be at this point, plus the fact that my inlaws were on the boat for the first time so I had to impress. Don't give Lovin' too much grief for losing to his son, BTW, I don't claim to be a better surfer, just winner of this competition. Ride ON.

    Nice job...but why is the video on a Japanese YouTube site? Might be my browser though...every youtube link I click takes me to jp.youtube.com....weird.

    Ambivalent? Yes. Or Not.

      Gees, kids these days. You leave them alone for a minute and look what they do. The rest of the story is that he went first on that trip and I followed him. On my turn I also completed the 360 and stayed in the pocket, so technically it was a tie.

        So where's the video of you pulling the 360 Powell?

          He claimed that the battery died on his video camera, so he didn't get it on video. But everyone on the boat saw it and admitted that I pulled it off as well. Hence a tie.

                That looks like so much fun! It really makes me want to go out and get a wakesurf board and try it. Is all you need just the board? Also, how do you start? Any idea where I can look up some info on wakesurfing? Anyone do any other tricks than a 360? Looks like I'm gonna hit google for a while!

                    Same here. I am now at the point that I can make the full rotation pretty much every time but I am falling out of the pocket still. I've read surfdad's pointers over and over and over and I'm getting much closer!!!

                    Congrats on getting the 3! I know I will be just as excited once I complete it!
