Practice cutting out on your heelside, then flatten off and give your back foot a push into the water and pull your front foot up. Start small, get bigger. Now landing... I find a lot of people when they start look down at the water when they're doing this and usually their body follows where they're looking (right into the water!) Laughing So try keeping your head up, and look where you're going and just practice, it'll come soon enough. Cool

always land with your back foot first or you can get some nice whiplash
