Hello. Just wanted to say thanks to the members for the advice on the site. I board behind an older Reinell with the trim up half-way, an older Hyperlite 140 and no tower. Thanks to your suggestions I am able to clear the wake pretty easily in smooth water, still not great heighth (maybe because my board is heavy and old).Next question is on foot placement. My back foot is turned slightly out from 90 degrees and my front foot is angled out even more, is this correct? I am 6 feet tall and weigh 175.

strykerrcr, the only correct foot placement is the distance between your boots. Your boots should be about shoulder length but how you position the boots is up to you. Try every didn't way; experiment Very Happy

ya you can try angeling them even more... you want the stance as wide as u can withough any discomfort while riding... so start with your stance narrow... if it doesnt cause any pain anywhere... widen it and so on.. cause the wider the stance the more stable you are... and for the angle... a lot of it is just confort but you still want a fair amount so its easy to ride switch as well
