30 years old and have been riding fairly serious for about 5 years. I am currently riding a 2015 Ronix one timebomb with 2015 ronix code 55 boots. Trick list is the following: HS 180, TS 180, Switch HS 180, toeside 360, heelside 360, backroll, and pretty much every grab out there. Would like to start learning tantrums, TS backroll, and Scarecrow, but cant get past the mental block. I agree, my toeside and heelside 360 was a heck of a lot harder to learn and hit consistently than my backroll. I can land a backroll 10/10 times, but still only hit my hs and ts 360 8/10 times. This year I have been getting really consistent with heelside 360's off the double up. Double up 360's are by far my favorite thing to do right now. Nothing like the feeling of getting booted off a big double up and throwing a slow stalled out 360.

Went out this evening and noticed I ride front foot heavy...both ways. I worked on my 180s also. Some are getting easier, some aren't. Tomorrow I plan to hit it again....but behind my boat.

I tend to enjoy landing my tricks face first. [emoji41]

Baller status. How do you ride out of that kind of landing?

Here is a pic of my fat a$$ jumping last night. The wake was a 2000 Malibu Sunsetter with 700lbs in the rear and 400lbs in the front with the wedge down.

Trust me, it was tough to gauge. His boat doesn't have a bottom fin and the driver didn't know how to pull on his boat. I am happy with the pop but some pulls it was flat, others felt great.

Love this thread! I'm 32 years old and have been riding on and off for 15 years. Axis is hands down one of the best wakeboard wakes on the market and I love to hear about everyone progressing behind these boats!!!

I'm 31 and been riding since I was 14. My parents had a 1989 Sport Nautique when I was growing. Finally in 2012 I was able to afford buying a boat from TNT Watersports in Nashville and have had 4 Axis boats (A22, A22, T22, T23). The T23 is by far my favorite. I have the standard motor and can still make the wake huge with a nice landing ramp which is good on these 31 year old knees!!
