Forgo what we know

Forgoing the warning sticker....
Here's my question... I've heard and or read about doing the WOT 180's, where you can complete the turn and wind up in the wake you traveled, at which point nailing the gas to bury the nose and thus uhhmm, clean the windshield and perhaps rinse the floor board.
What is the technique used to make this manuever? I've only been able to do the inside the wake turn once, and by the look on my wife's face (married men know the look) knew "rinsing" the nose was not an option.

Is the key to have a forward passenger?

Anyone? .......

Thanks for the info. I can say that of all things that could go wrong I never thought of breaking the steering cable.
I'll put on my saftey hat and give it another spin.

I stopped that many years ago. Do it enough times and eventually you'll hit a wave just right and it'll flip over. Ya it's fun and looks cool and is very impressive. I can guarantee you, the chicks won't be impressed when the EPA shows up along with the local police. In one state (MN) I know the fine is $1000.00 per day for a sunken vehicle in a public lake or river. With the clock ticking like this, your not going to care if that boat is retrieved in one piece or not, not to mention it will pretty much be junk when its all said and done.

Yes, glad you concur its tempting fate.
I've picked enough people out of the water over the years to learn trouble finds you less when one's not looking for it.

I've witnessed one of those spins go wrong and clearly saw the tripple-fins before the boat decided to roll back the way it came, and that became the last time i saw that particular SN goof off.

Not only steering cables, but the rudder takes a bit of force as well. It is very easy to lose a passenger....call SKIDIM and speak with Richard about the driver who was thrown out. It will make you think twice about the spin as well as the kill switch. That being said, some boats spin easier than others. On our small ski lake, at the end of a barefoot run, you have to back off the throttle and turn prior to hitting the bank. when we use the Malibu, it will spin without us really trying.

Again...leave the passenger on the dockAnd if you are to do it...know that there are risks...and it's stressfull on the equiptment!
The only reason we advise this caution...is...well... ah...dah...er...um..... we all did it too!!! So be carefull!

"Who without sin cast the first stone"    ...just don't hit me with it!!!

WOW! You all have certainly opened my eyes!

Thanks for the advice and your own experience.

Always good to hear "the rest of the story".
