Missing 360

Q: I can't seem to complete a hand-to-hand wake 360. I can feel the handle in my back, but can't get my free hand around far enough to grab it.

A: To reach the handle more easily, pull the handle in hard to your left hip as the board hits the crest of the wake. This creates slack in the rope to allow you to move the handle to your lower back as you rotate to the 180-degree position. Always bring the handle to the same spot at your lower back each time. This way, your free hand will be able to make the change consistently. – Kent McMillan, former national kneeboard champion.
