I am struggling. I can get of the wake heelside so easily but when i try and get off the wake toeside the board cuts in too much and i end up faceplanting. any help i can get would be awesome. |

Colclough999, I had the exact same problem he had when I was learning and some pro's helped a brother out and they told me to let go with my trailing hand and low and behold first try im out of the wake toeside. but once you get out you need to put two hands back on to get a harder cut. _________________ The sky is not the limit.

I could see it being helpful to a newb trying to get out of the wake, much for the same reason they tell you to let go of your trainling hand to regain stability if your board starts sliding diagonally. I think its jumping w2w toeside that you should not do one handed. _________________ Long Island, NY & Canada Lake, NY (addirondacks)

i was thinking the same thing as Colclough999 until i read it more carefully. Then GuitsBoy's post made a lot of sense. I thought you were talking about jumping the wake toeside, but are you talking about just edging out of the wake? _________________
