His best guess was a damn good guess, as it lands ass first quite a bit too. I'd say he did a pretty good job splitting the difference and doing so in safe manner. Running 90's in what I believe the commentator says are 8' - 10' footers is impressive - and it looks pretty level to me on a lot of those jumps...

I second the recommendation to take Tres' course...you will learn allot about how to operate you boat safely... It's definitely money well spent in my opinion...

We all do it and it is so much fun...
But years ago Harry Schoells told me.."remember, if the props are out of the water you're slowing down!"
