u haven't seen my chinpad....see picture. i pancaked from 10feet up in the air and jammed my arm against the bars:

 

[stanton]

wow thats crazy dude!

 

[Woody]

for whatever reason i cant get the rotation around...the minute i go off the wave i kno i'm not gonna make it...but i keep going up and up and up...get upside down, and then SPLATTT lol.

my signature has my video of me doing them back in 07 at daytona.

and woody...kick your feet out as soon as you leave the face of the wave.

sounds like you werent hitting it late enough, when i first did them i had to plow through a breaking wave, now i go bigger and have to hit it earlier.

 

[Woody]

i get to about where you are in your avatar maybe a little more rotated then drop like a meteor out of the sky.

Well first all you guys that go big like that mad props....

However, Woody this last statement made me laugh so hard.....hope the arm heals for that Daytona flip!:splatt:
