long day on the bay

[Superjetter_95]

well, thought we'd go hit up the beach today.
surf sucked, so we went to the bay.
got some good practice in on attempting barrel rolls.
closer and closer each time :biggrin:
any advice on form?
its kind of hard for me to keep tucked in and look over the side rail

Are those home-made sponsons?

Your body is on the wrong side of the pole, you need to get the weight off the ski if you are trying to barrel roll. Get your body way over to the left and swivel and bend at the hips unloading the tray of your weight.

a good set up wake helps a lot. make make a big U-turn almost making a V and turn around and head towards the middle of the U there will be a nice set up wake there. Do a little pre-jump and land right on the set up wake then crank your roll around. Try to stay low like tucked close to the ski it will help a lot.
