Rolls & Flips. Introduction.

Wakeboarding is a blast and there is nothing more satisfying than landing your first invert. There are two important elements when first attempting any of these tricks. (1) All of these tricks are based off a wake jump, whether you're edging in heelside or toeside. It is important not to get ahead of yourself and be thinking of other things when approaching the wakes. Remember to approach the wakes (whether you're edging heelside or toeside, easy or hard) the same as if you were going to just jump the wake. This will help enable you to stay in control and maximize your height, which will give you the proper air time you'll need to complete the trick. (2) It is very important that you are mentally prepared to attempt these tricks. You may act and/or hope that you are ready for the trick, but in reality, you may not be. Being 100% mentally ready for any trick that you attempt will help you totally commit to the trick, which is what's required. This will save you a lot of hard falls and allow you to learn the trick much faster. (3) Be sure that your riding is at the appropriate level before attempting any of these tricks.
