What trick am I doing?
 
Ok. So I am a 13 year old rider who can do 180, 360, 540 and I started inverts. I did the backflip (cartwheel, not tantrum) but as I did it more and more it turned into this. I don't know what it is. Does anyone know?

Thank you in advance.

Heel backroll. Looked close...hold on and you might land it!

So a tantrum?

Nope not a tantrum. A heel backroll

So I'm getting it's better since the tantrum is the simplest invert?

Haha, all in the eye of the beholder.. Better is rather subjective. A lot consider backroll simpler than tantrum since tripping is difficult. Although you are doing it switch stance so that's something as well.. Or are you goofy footed? Do you like it better than the tantrum? Then it's better :) now land it! Then grab it.

Example, I like a wrapped 540 better than a 720.. Even though it's simpler

Keep the rope at your waist and you will land it

Thanks guys ;)

Show us when you hit it!!

props for getting that close on that wake. Looks super small and washed out but you still got good air. Keep that handle in tight and don't let go. You are close so you will land it soon enough.

super small and washed out...what has this sport come to? This industry makes me sad

STVWake, so close, keep ripping, looks like you have everything you need to get really good.

Sacha: You'll get a lot better wake if you trim up the leg of the motor a bit to get rid of the wash. It will make a nicer ramp for you. You'll just have to watch that you don't do it too much otherwise the boat will start porpoising.

I am in the school of thought that believes a hit to the wake starts when you edge out, a lot of times bad form edging out carries over to your edge in.

when you edge out, put both hands on the handle when you edge out, stand up tall with your hips pointed out, and do it one one smooth edge....
