I seem to have the same problem everyone else has....i can cut as far and as hard as i want on my hs but ts i face plant hardcore every time....i try to rutter my back foot and point the bottem of the board twords the boat but it seems like i might cut to deep b/c i feel water come over my toes and then it creates a ton of drag and shortly there after i am in the water. Any tips would be great Very Happy

what speed are you riding at? b/c it sounds like u might be going to slow. its just like why you can't ride straight @ 5 mph so bump the speed up to about 19-23. that should do the trick but if you're going that fast already leave another post.

To really get a good edge with the board so that you wont faceplant you really have to lean pretty good but stand tall also.
