Stay on edge all the way through the wake. Don't stop to jump.

Also, look past the second wake as you leave the wake.

If you edge hard and push hard with your legs and the handle, you will go to the flats.

I agree you edge all the way through the wake and really concentrate on standing tall at the wake.

However.. FWIW landing in the flats is *not* as nice as landing on the downside of the second wake Wink It might not be all you were hoping for Very Happy
