Weigh the boat down to create a BIGGER wake. I would get 2 or 3 500 lb fat sacs and a pump. This will help quite a bit adding 1000 to 1500 lbs.

What do you ean tbd? You ARE meant to continue your cut all the way through the wake, not back off before you hit it Confused All it pretty much comes down to is timing... At the right point you have to straighten your legs and push the handle down and get ready to fly!
