The Gyroll


  1. Ben has found the perfect combination of maximum speed and timing with the pitching lip as he launches out of the pocket. At this point you try to extend the height of the roll as usual.
  2. At the peak of the roll comes the most critical part of the move. Instead of continuing the roll, tuck your head as you move into the front flip. Momentum will naturally assist throughout. Don't forget, where your head travels your body will follow.
  3. Ben has rotated enough to let him land in the cushion of the whitewater right side up.
  4. Keeping a tight grip on his board throughout, he has ridden out of today's most cutting-edge manoeuvre.
