Cherry Buster Advice

[Speleopower]

Yup all fear. Not sure I want to flip a ski but who knows. I've not ever flipped on a ski but I can do front and and backflips windsurfing (I don't windsurf anymore) and kitesurfing. Look backwards and you'll go over for sure.

Great CRAB you really know how to put confidence in someone . I dont know if its the x-ray avatar or the destroyer destroyed pic.

If you can, on your first try, do it AWAY from shore in a little deeper water.

Hit it late... Hit it hard...:icon16:

great advice in this thread... your fear is the only thing that can keep you from doing it... I know it's easier said than done, but just do it!!!!

the pics make it look worse than it is. those busted up skis were just too close to shore.

stay further out and wait for a nice wave. its worth the wait, and most of the time the smaller waves breaking on shore wont get the other newbs in the cherry buster all the way around unless they really muscle it their 1st time.

my 1st time was more of a "oh , just hold on!" more than a "hmm.. i seem to need more rotation here, let me pull back real hard and arch my back and neck some more"

I'm glad I did it the year I did. it was sloppier but bigger than last year.

Head high and breaking takes all the work out of it. Gas it and hold on.
