    1. Make sure you go into the wake thinking big indy stiffy and not 180. When you get in the air, make the decision and spin on the way down by moving the handle hard back toward the wakes...

    1. Try to load the tail of the board on this move so you can get used to leaving the wake with a tight line. This will help you progress toward batwings and off-axis spins. Do this by keeping the approach short and the edge strong...

    TS/FS 360
    1. It really helps to think of this move in two parts. So don't think 360 when you approach the wake -- think grab 180. If it's a good one, pull the rest of the spin on the way down. 2. The key to landing this spin is not allowing your head to come around to the boat on the landing...

    1. The key to having great control as an off-axis spinner is spending a lot of time on the trampoline and learning the off-axis 180s. Learn this move first on the tramp and then take it to the water...

    1. There are actually two ways you can do this move. One is by going all the way to 540 and then shifting back, and the other is just committing to a 360 off the wake. I would opt for the latter first...

    TS/FS 540
    1. The elements of this move are a TS/FS 180, a TS/FS 360 and a switch HS/BS 360. Learn these on the surface, inside out and even one-wake to help you put together the 540. 2. This is usually the first 540 that riders learn...

    1. The best tip for this 540 is to pitch over after you leave the wake and as you start spinning. Pitching the nose over and down will help you fall over your toes on the landing. 2. Make sure you keep the bottom of the board visible to the people in the boat...

    1. This feels a lot like a heelside back roll to revert if you go off axis too much, and doing that motion will help you land the move at first. But After you land it, mellow out the flippy spin by pulling your heels down toward your butt...

    1. Combine a trip-flip edge change with a progressive edge to get the pop you need for this move. Combining the two will help you manipulate the board so you can go up and over the handle before you spin...

    HS/FS 720
    1. Many riders grab this move to set the axis. Make sure you use more legs then edge on this trick to keep the line tension low and allow you to pull hard on the handle to create the slack you need to make the passes...

    1. This on-axis spin has faded away since the off-axis version came into play. It's very fast-paced, making it difficult to get the right axis every time. Use a slow drifting edge and a lot of legs...

    1.It helps to go more inverted on this spin. Letting your hips go above your head helps you advance and get the last handle pass. 2. It may also help to bring your front knee up as you leave the wake, kind of like a front flip...

    1. Knowing how to do a scarecrow mobius will help for this move. The landings are very similar. Make sure you are really good at your switch toeside blind landings before attempting the 720...

    1. After you accomplish the surface 360 right in the middle, try it moving across the back of the boat so you get more of the sensation you would feel when trying it in the air wake to wake...

    1. Be aggressive with your edge out so you can get off edge early and have time to set up for the 180. The faster you edge, the more coasting time you have to really put your legs into it...
