its easy to go that big with the indian line thats like 5' shorter than a normal cable line.

Didn't realize that was off the cable? pfftt... look how calm the water was and look at what is below him. Doubleup off of a house. Unlikely.

Parks had a nice big cable launch in Monkey on a String or one of those older vids. It actually looks like he goes bigger than that and actually lands them very easily.

Not really comparing apples to apples with Best and Rusty there. Both are sick shots though, props to both riders.

doing Indian airs around the corners like that is super dangerous. If the carrier ejects you...you'll land on the shore for sure

(wakebrdr38) · (wakebrdr38) **Join Date: Sep 2006** 05-01-2009, 7:52 AM

and getting ejected definately happens. Ride cable enough and you will have a carrier break on you. I know I have. There is a little ball on the end of the steel leader and the ball sometimes breaks off from people doing lots of load tricks. I had one break one time at tsr on the starting dock, we pulled the rope out and the leader clearly broke where it attatched to the carrier. I think that is why you dont see indian lines much

yeah...I've broke many of them. I broke one doing an airtrick in front of the starting dock and landed about 2-3ft from the dock.
