My Tricks

I've honed these techniques over the past 21 years or riding X-2's (jeez I'm old).

(I can do these tricks on flat water OR surf)

1. Sink Ski.... just handle bars are above water level.
2. Crack Hull.
3. Crash one X-2 into another at full speed.... broken hull.
4. Hit sandbar @ full speed and flip over handle bars.... Oakly's fly off of face.
5. Run over Tow Rope and bend driveshaft.

Hmm... Any pictures or videos to back those up?

 

[dbrutherford]

I can do tail stands pretty good...

:bow28: :bananalama: :headbang: :Banane57: :beerchug: :djsmilie:

I have done the crash into another ski, it wasn't at WOT though...


I can do this trick where I am in a tail stand and I bob the ski up and down like you were going to do a 50/50 or monkey jump. But instead I let the ski shoot out of the water and I crank on the bars so the ski does a 360 up out of the water wile in a tail stand position. It lands away from me and I climb back on and ride away.

I have a trick in mind for surf but it will require major balls to try it and I am a little too pu55y :cat40: :cat37: to try it yet. Then again I don't ride surf EVER!

I can fountain all day long.....

 

[BlueBreadTruck]

here is me doing some flat water.... wish i had a vid of surf riding!

YouTube - 800cc x2

I'm learning the original barrel roll. Like Jeff "Kamikaze" did it back in the days. I also am pretty close to consistent nose stabs.

 

[BlueBreadTruck]

I would enjoy seeing someone perform the old style barrel roll, especially on an x2

 

[sflsurfrider]

isnt that a "log roll"?

 

[Vumad]

I would enjoy seeing someone perform the old style barrel roll, especially on an x2

Anyone have videos to show the difference b/t old style and new style barrel rolls?

 

[djyox]

I think they are talking about the log roll like SFL said. Just go fast, turn and lean out, hang on, go underwater, and come back up still on the ski.

Yep, that's the one. LOG roll, not barrel.....

For Crying Out Loud

Old Fart..... has one post and he's ripping my skillz :beerchug:

If you can hit the throttle you can repeat my tricks ":starwars::Banane01:

 

[wadman]

any new tricks out there?

 

[FL-cracker]

Roles were pretty easy in the surf on Pete's boat for me. The second and third one I nailed perfect, riding out like I never left the water.... 1st time on a X2 since I was 5yrs old. lol

 

[Nefarious]

Flat water:
180's
tail stands
subs
fountain
leg drag

Surf:
stabs
slashes
1/2 A$$ supermans
1 handers

Pretty small book of tricks but I'm happy since I've only been riding X2's since Oct.
