As I type these words here on 12-11-2024 it’s hard to believe it’s been 25 years now !! I still remember being glued to our T.V. Watching it all live as it unfolded with my 11 year old daughter who used to Skateboard at our local parks with me , and we were both cheering him on along with the crowd there. When he FINALLY nailed it we knew we had just witnessed something great in history that day . Years later when Tony had his autobiography out and was doing book signings at the San Diego Aerospace museum we went and I got to shake his hand & remind him that my Buddies and I had been the ones at Del Mar Skate Ranch who helped him up and over to the Entrance where Grant called his dad the day he knocked out his front teeth on a hell of a slam on the concrete. I still have the book as well as a nice framed Picture from him , both signed by one of the Greatest Skateboard legends to ever get on a board . Thanks Tony , for some great memories buddy .😎👍

Why don't you try learn new tricks? Go back to basics.. ride shorter and slower. Ride a 142 at 65' at 22.5.. or even 21.5.. it will teach you how to generate line tension at slower speeds and use your legs more for pop off the top of the wake. Go back to basics big time.. learn hs bs and fs +switch 360s. Learn ts fs and bs 360s. Learn roll to revert and half cab roll. Try some tantrum variations after you dial in blind 180s and hs 180s.. Try learn Raley and glides at like 18.5mph.. Sooo many things you can and should do. IMO riding at 90' at anything over 24mph is unnecessary and dangerous particularly if you are a bigger rider.

@christopherdunkley2632 After I blew my right knee in 2004 (which was my 2nd catastrophic surgery from wakeboarding), I said I'd rather not learn any new tricks then miss another summer of riding. And I've tried to ride slower & shorter length but it just doesn't connect with the way I like to ride. I actually fall more & have gotten hurt much worse that way. Again, my riding setup is nothing new. I've been riding this way for over 15 years now & really have had no issues up to this point. And I have had slumps before, but not like this year. In the past, a slump was like 1-2 sets, not 4-5 months like I've dealt with this year. But I'm continuing to stay optimistic & positive about it, and know that I'll eventually figure it out. Finished off the holiday weekend yesterday with a decent set, one of my better ones this year, so I'll take that little win.
@christopherdunkley2632 5 ай бұрын
@ryanshimabukuro3283 I think you have had the wrong approach since 2004. If you learn correctly at slower speeds, learning a new trick should be far safer than the way you are currently riding. Doing tricks at 90' at over 25 mph, is actually far more gforce, than learning something at a shorter rope length at say 20mph.. Sometimes you have to take multiple steps back to take a giant leap forward.. You need to step back to see the forest through the trees. I know you don't agree, because I've recommended this to you before, but this te you asked for opinions, so I thought I would try again.
@ryanshimabukuro3283 5 ай бұрын
@@christopherdunkley2632I appreciate your input & advice. Let's just agree to disagree on this one, at least for me. Because I wouldn't disagree with that approach for most riders out there. And I also agree with you that I did learn the "wrong" way because back in the mid-90's, it was a race to the "flip". At least with the guys I rode with. Wakeboarding has always been a secondary thing for me, even though I love it. In the past 15 years though, my time on the water is very limited because of work & how crowded our lakes have gotten. It's a 5-6hr commitment just to get the boat to the lake & get 1 set in, and hopefully the water is good for that 1 set. I'm just not motivated to use up what little water time I get with trying drastic changes to my riding style. If I could get on the water at least 4 times a week with great conditions, & I didn't have to worry about "wasting" good water, then I'd probably be more open to it.

You got this! I will say way back when you rode 75/23 on my old VLX I thought you looked good. Ive found my ultimate slump busters to be- 1- don’t ride when the weather is cold 2- do a full ballast set of only straight airs. I did a set of only ts no grab straight airs the other week and it helped a ton. 3 - sometimes you just need a week or 2 off. Gives you time to get other life stuff done, rehab and builds excitement to get back out. My broken arm taught me that one.
