Wait, so your telling me i need to do a few 180s and a shov, slash the wake once and slap the board kinda to be considered a professional wakeskater. I had those runs 8 years ago behind a bowrider and a merc 150.
Glad i went to college instead of perusing this as a career.

instead of talking sh*t on the internet why dont you come out to the contest and do something about it? so for now, go back to college and get herpes.

lets agree on one thing wake skating competitions are a joke, if you want to see someone perform their best they need to be in their own element, unless ofcourse your reed and ride the exact same all the time

I went to college and got herpes so excellent intuition.
and i ride with everyone in orlando, so i dont need to prove my worth in front of WWA bias judges.

If I had to guess, you ain't pro bc that attitude is whack. that usually matters more to sponsors than how dope your run is.

Those are wakeboarding boats with giant wakes… You could never have the same run off a merc 150 dude- it's a completely different level.
Wakeskating is very hard. Even the pros aren't trying wake-to-wake kickflips in competition and that says a lot about how hard they are to land. However, they can still do them. Just in competition, they want to stay consistent and not fall. Not an easy thing to do off a giant wake.
If you want to see awesome tricks in competition- watch cable or winching competitions.
