An old idea

So a few months ago I was pushing a half-empty bowl of soup (Ramen noodles to be precise) around on the counter. Have you ever done this? The liquid sploshes back against the direction of the force and then sways with the force's direction and pushes the side of the bowl thus pushing the bowl forward even more. What if this was applied into a wakeskate? It would make pokes level out and possible even push the nose downward some. In theory it would help a kickflip rotate the last 180 degrees on the X-axis faster but perhaps sloppier? 3 Shoves I'd imagine would be easier too. It's all speculation but what if I could split the plys on a wood wakeskate and hollow out a recess and insert a rectangular plastic shell 3/4 full of water and seal the top and bottom back together? This is making me really curious on it's effectiveness.
