Other Is this a Nose Stab?

Middle of the rotation lift your fit up to pick the back end of the ski up as high as you can. Also steer away from the wave or wake ur hitting and turn into it as your commiting to the nose stab. And lean over the chin pad as much as you can and you will see a difference.

Looks like you did that off of flatwater with a prehop and no wave or wake. If so, that's pretty good.

Ya, Flat water with a pre-hop

Think Im ready for a Bronco 180? But I am thinking I'll need to shorten my pole it seems its in the way when I do try to get over the chin pad

you need a bigger pre hop. then pin the throttle while you land the pre hop and crank the bars the other way. your form is there.


i suck at flatwater but when i practice stabs like that on the flat with no setup wake for a ride or two, the next ride in the surf i wind up overrotating them.

i gotta grow a set and try and learn rolls soon.
 
Your on the right road just need more height and rotation. Do you have a shorter pole and a quick steering setup?

You need to roll 1/2 the way but to get there you have to flick the rear end out with the steering. Tuck and roll..when the nose of the ski enters the water it stops your forward momentum and stands the ski up for you. Look at frostys video. You can see what I am talking about. And PIN the throttle when you enter the water. It shoots a blast of water straight in the air 50 feet. This is my favorite trick. You disappear under water with an explosion of water like a magician.

Ive got a WDK Quick Steer stock pole think I need to get a shorter pole to rotate like frostys in that video, I just cant seem to get over the poll as much as i would like because its in the way, thats probally the awnser
 
It takes a LOT of practice. Start by trying to do 90 degree rotation and land flat on your side or your shoulder but try to keep the ski flat with the water then do 180 degrees and let your head hit the water first. Then change your angle so that the nose grabbs the water first. The PIN the throttle and your gone. Practice on getting higher more pop so you have more rotation time
