i dont like it, its like those ars's all the groms do.. pee's me off, i remember one ars at shark island a few years back looked so good, atcually doing the roll first then spinning is so much better, all the others are sh!t
everything happens for a reason.. we just dont realise it at the time

aha sorry i have to disagree with you on this one, i think it looks shit haha


:lol:

i kind of like that it looks a bit silly, sure it doesnt have the class that a forward air has but it looks so fun and is a great tweak to a well used move to and a move that never really took off. If you you bodyboard for fun then its a sick move however that being said im unsure of its place in competitive events, not sure how it would be judged. I think on a 6 ft wave with more air it would look alot smoother and could be pretty sick, could even go the double reverse roll with enough height :D

competitors are hesitant to do air reverses in competition, i highly doubt they'd be pulling something so risky as this out of the bag

I rate it when it's smooth but in that vid doesn't really have the air time to make it look decent :/
