Works on the Bike for jumps, Open the throttle in the air if nose heavy, front will rise. Nose high dab the rear brake. Pull on the bars helps. Gyroscopic twaddle waffle whatever, It works, Dont Fink I't will work on a boat though. All landings hurt it's just how much !!!!!!

Agreed, all the work has to be done before/as you lose contact with the water....after that, you're just a passenger!
