iv just learnt to cartwheel but im having trouble getting the 3rd bow end down. im in a fluid nemisis and im one click off the back seating position. i think i may be too far back but all the advice i ever get is put your seat forward which is physically impossible for me or get a bigger boat which im not gunna do because i already have a boat and i dont want a bath tub. or the one that winds me up the most which is "stick to creeking". i just want to know can you still get end over end with the seat all the way back on flat water without being eric jackson?

Could you get some video footage of yourself? That would help. :) Are your legs long, so that why you're at the second from the back position?

You could be doing a number of things wrong, but without seeing you I'd just be stabbing in the dark :dry:

Cool. If you're not keen on posting a video for all to see then put it on Vimeo, password protect it and send me or anyone else interested in helping you the password via the message. Depends what you're comfortable with. Up to you.

Oh by the way, I created this video over 2 years ago but it might help you:
