flatwater barrel roll

[Corbearofskiing]

can a flat water barrel roll be done with a 701 and b-pipe set up, or is it mostly rider and not machine (to a certain extent)

 

[Legdrag's]

Sure can! Seen it a couple of times. Rob Pillus.

 

[Marshj]

Do it every time I ride.

It's all about just loving your ski for what it is.:grouphug:

 

[Corbearofskiing]

marshj, whats your setup like?

^^^ that guy Marsh is about the best rider I have seen on a stock SJ He was doing double troubles? (I think that is what it is... one barrel roll after the other.)

Last year at lanier. But to roll a limted ski he has problems... LOL He just had a problem staying in my foot holds...

Any extra tips for this on a stock ski?? They told me I couldnt sub it or nose stab with out foot holds, I laughed and did it. Now I need to roll this thing,just need to get my set up wake down.

Also I am havin a b!tch of a time tryin to jump other boat wakes, tried yesterday and found the wakes to be more like a series of wakes,do you want to hit the first one or roll it and hit the next?

Tried the first part of a monkey flip as well and all I could do is get on the hood,pretty good I guess,now I just need to get my foot to find the throttle.

Did you read that Marsh kept coming out of my footholds. I believe they are a must but I can't say that they can't be done without either.

Edit: that sounds mean but It isn't ment that way I just seen Marh try a ton of times and he couldn't pull them off while slipping out of my foot holds. He went one way and the ski went the other.

i plan to flatwater roll this summer or hurt myself or break my boat which ever comes first. with a bpipe, prop, head, and footholds

 

[Speedfreak]

Rob Pillus doesnt count.. he's not human.

Holy freekin hell is that a limited in a stock hull... THAT IT INSANE!!

I havn't been that high since I was in the ocean

 

[Corbearofskiing]

So is there a yearly time when Highroller sets people up to go there? I'll probably have some nice long vacations coming up and would love to be there for a few weeks (looking at the stadium you were in)

 

[onlyFX-1]

no, no yearly thing. He left and i went down there after him.

 

[onlyFX-1]

theres 2 rolls at the end of this. The first one is on a ski with only a 13/18 prop

That's the key right there.

We have a member of our group that can pull them off with his stock SXR he doesn't even have a scoop grate footholds only.
This proves to me that technique is 99% of a roll.:biggthumpup:

if he can do that on a sxr I cant imagine what he would be able to do with a built sj. i was trying nosestabs on my buddies sxr last year and i could definately tell a difference in weight.

We have been trying to get him to move up to an SJ he will come around it takes time.
