I am a left footer too, can either find a park where it goes around in opposite direction, Practice switching to other foot or try a system 2.0 straight cable. I'm a beginner and watch to try this soon. The other option which Might be too hard is to look up toeside raley. Probably too hard.Still worth trying. I can't wait to attempt it, I'm just trying to get better at heelside edge etc.as i'm fairly new. Good luck
Its actually just as hard regular, but the cons of boarding regular are that when you want to learn it on the ideal spot (between 2 curves) you wont have time to get back to the red bouyes for the next curve.
You will still take, maybe a few falls after your first succesfull landing, but that arent that much, once you have smelled on the airbourne aspect of wakeboarding, those crashes are not that bad, since making a raley just feels... soo damn good...
It looks like 100% of these guys are riding goofy (right foot forward). I have never ridden a cable (today will be the first time!) but that seems weird. Maybe they can't cut in the other direction due to the park structure or something. Good video, thanks for posting it.
@yowp i guess this is an late response but still.....first tricks should be ollie and surface 180....and if your at a cable park there should be a couple of obstacle like a kicker or Funbox, try these first before attempting the raley
@Axxis171 just do it like a giant C, you still just want to get that edge on your board except if your natural and its a right foot forward cable do a C not an S.... in sydney we have 2 lakes in either direction so its easy for both stances but when i ride the right foot forward lake(im goofy so its my off leg) i almost do a u turn, back on myself... if that makes sense.... sorry its hard to explain in writing hahaha
@thomasXkiteXforXlife try and do it as soon as you get off the dock, when you take off just cut hard untill you get under the cable, then release your edge.
Nice vid!!! Yesterday I landed the backroll first time after 4weeks wakeboarding. Now I want to start with the raley. Now my Question: Do I have to carve back on my heelside much longer than for the backroll to create enough tention? In your vid it looks like you don´t wait very long till you edge. Thx
Hello! is it possible to do the raley in the inside of the cable? I learned wakeboarding on a right-running cable, now I live on a left-running cable and I feel more save with edging in the inside... btw: is a raley in between two masts possible?
It's not difficult, but I don't really dare to release the edge... : S I think that's because it's maybe a bit more difficult for leftfooters like me... ; )
actually it gets really easy once you learn it, u think its annoying but actually its the easiest part, maybe ur not flicking but jumping i dont know but keep trying
Great stuff but everyone in this video is riding "goofy" (left foot forward). How about if you're natural (right foot forward) ? The whole S thing at the start doesn't work.
