Wow yah guess that was older than I thought lol though I didn't start boarding till summer of 06 so I have an excuse. Wasn’t his 009 in a sequence shot in WBM?
i personally think matt simms is the most underrated wakeboarder. and just thinking about it in my head i would think a 009 is way harder than a 10. but thats just my 2 cents
I think its the 4 handle passes to one that makes the 1080 a technically harder trick. Considering that no one on here knows from experience, this is also just conjecture.
A handle pass doesn't have to be behind your back to make it a pass. I stand corrected on the 009 pass, but a TS 10 uses 4 passes, two in front, two in back, land blind.
yea man i was gonna say the same thing. not that i know from experiance but the last handle pass of a 1080 has got to be one of the hardest. even though its not behind the back. when you see most people land 9's its with there back hand on the rope and its nowhere near there hip.
