That makes no sense and is completely wrong.
Risk is a calculation of probability of failure. Nothing else.
What you should be looking for is the max payout with minimal risk. That is
how you maximize reward.
Awesome way to say it !!
Do-it is a base-jumper ; his idea of risk=reward is a bit skewed , from
most rational humans. Mine's a bit skewed also ; but i ain't the one bashing
Toby, like the Do-it did.
@ Toby
Nice Job ; Keep at it sir !!!!

Ultimately what Toby is doing combined total risk is greater than Lenten.
I think someone wants a pants on handy from toby.
Seriously, that was some weird 7 degrees of toby shit right there. I guess only a few of us find the real humor in videotaping yourself for countless hours doing the same tricks over and over and over.
Toby..... I've got a great idea. Learn all your tricks going the opposite direction. That will be a real step forward.

I do all jumping tricks to the right, transitions to the left. Can't really boost high to the weak left side...if you are starting then learn on both sides...if you want to concentrate on new tricks, don't waist time for the week side...
Nah, Toby only jumps on starboard tack.

LOL...same crew, same mental positions as last DVD release. For and against, with some in the middle.
Hilarious.
ps I have to admit, I did chuckle at the last post, am I a bad man?

Toby - what is your optmum position for the power setting height of your bar in relation to your shoulders/head - for your tricks...
Im sure if the bar is too low you lose the centre of gravity, it would make getting the board on and off harder ?
