Handle problems!

The way that i ride is stopping me from learning the more technical tricks. I do everything preety much with a raley cut so when i try roll-2-blind :Tant-2-blind; HS mobes, etc... I try to take a less cut to get more str8 up pop and i'm concentrating on keeping the handle close to my hips but i end up losing all my pop!!! Then i start thinking i'd be better off trying them 15 feet into the flats but i'm no Randy Harris.

What's up with that????????

Any help is appreciated

It can't be that simple. Is it?

dude whenever i overthink my approach i always screw up. just go out there and dont worry about all the little things and just ride comfortably. the handle is important but i will argue to sau its not nealry as impartant as your approac, standing tall on the wake ect.

Well that's what i'm trying to figure out. Should i stay with my style or try to learn everything wake-2-wake.
Cuz personally i hate landing in the trough outside the wake the landings are much better 10 feet plus.

Just ride the way you like to ride. There is nothing wrong with going huge on everything. There is no "correct" style to ride your wakeboard. Therefore, ride the way you ride best, the technical tricks will come with practice. Besides, they normally look better when taken huge anyways.
