I am having this problem getting air

ride more, and really pay attention, and keep mental notes of your speed and angle of attack.

and seriously, modulate that throttle from 0-100% and throw your weight at the same time.

I can easily completely bunny hop my 650 boat out of the water, without using the footholds, and with no wake.

can some one please give a newbie a brief rundown on a pre-jump

can some one please give a newbie a brief rundown on a pre-jump

• while at a low to mid speed let off the gas to sink the nose
• then full throttle
• then push down with your legs for a pre hop (prejump) you don't need to get out of the water on the prejump but unweight the ski.
• land in the trough off or low throttle so the nose will go down aproaching the wake/wave
• as you start to hit the wake/wave give it full throttle and push down with your legs.

the idea of getting the nose to drop on the prejump and just before the jump is to get the ski to bob up as you give it gas. you'll jump much higher this way.


of coarse, there is no prejump on good sized surf. :biggthumpup:
