I gave a terrible confession. I have been tricking during the apocalypse.

[Horton]

It is painful but I am trying to relearn my ticks. My SLB is coming back but is not really legal. The easy W5F is money. W5B is not great but is improving. Flip seems like it is never going happen again. Standard WO is good with normal and inverted rotation (that is not upside down - it is spinning the opposite direction you are traveling.) I can do reverse WO but only with inverted rotation - no idea why.

 

Anyone else tricking?

Lady friend of mine wants to know how much? Can you dress up like Richard Gere?

[Horton]

@Horton

This post deserves a Panda, I'm sorry. I'm translating this as "so bored I'm reverting back to practicing tricks as a total novelty that can only be done by folks afforded a life of private water access, privilege, and coaching as a bit of variety from repetitive extremely high-end competition slalom which is also afforded by a life of nearly impossible water ski access and privilege". Come on, Horton. Give yourself the Panda :p

[Horton]

@jhughes WTF are you talking about? I am ass hole because I am trick skiing during the lockdown?

[disland]

Break out the jumpers, the name of the sport is 3 event waterskiing

That’s not the only reason @Horton just one of them :*

[DaveD]

@eleeski I think this is @Horton's veiled request for coaching from you.

[Horton]

@DaveD yes I would love @eleeski to come coach me in tricks

[gsm_peter]

We trick in Sweden.

Mostly due to strong wind and cold water.

This year goal is a wrapped WO.

I can sometimes manage the unwrapp but not get enough air.

[KJackfrost]

I'm tricking a lot actually! Very glad to hear that you are enjoying it @Horton!

@Horton: "I like tricks"

Ballers: "hahaha"

 

@FWinter: "I like tricks"

Everyone: "Yeah that's cool"

 

Trickers: "We like tricks"

Everyone: crickets

 

Jeff Rodgers: "I don't mind tricks, I saw it once at Callaway"

Everyone: "I absolutely love tricks"

@Luzz

 

Jeff Rodgers constantly has me eyeing a foam three buckle and wondering if I could pull it off. I'd also wear it for tricks [on topic]

[Horton]

@FWinter I have one of these I could send you

@FWinter Vino did it for a season. it gave him some superpowers, and made him "heavy" enough for a 66"
