 |
|
I've been having some issues with my TS cuts. On my cut out I used to just hold on with my lead hand, after watching the book, I really tried to focus on proper position with both hands on the rope. Now I get bad spray washing over the TS tail of the board blasting my back leg? Is it my weight distribution? Not digging my toes in enough? Or something else.
I'm also having a hard time landing on edge with my TS jumps, I land with the board pointed towards the boat? I've been working on the drills from the book, and even just cutting through the wake I come off my edge. Who knows maybe my old body just doesn't twist that way lol.

The spray on you leg is normal. Watch the closeups of the riders in the book and you can see it. That bothered me too. As for the untwist in the air. I still have problems with that. Just really pull that handle in the small of your back and lean against the rope hard in the air. Someone on here told me to really trust my edge in the air and that helped me.
