snooks, STFU...

Simply hold your edge through the wake itself, but at the crest of it, stand tall while holding your edge still. If you could get a recent pic of you at the crest of the wake, then it would make the process a ton easier!

SPYOptix, SPYOptix, Or Mr. Double Poster, remember to hold your edge all the way through the wake. Shorten the rope a section, and pull the handle to your leading hip about half way through your cut. Stand tall, but dont try and "jump" the wake... Let the technique do the work for you. You might try and cut a tad harder too. Just think about it when you are edging out, and then go for it. You should easily get 2 or 3 feet with half assed technique.. ut try really hard.

just remember to crouch before you stand tall... it will give you that extra oomph!...... good luck!
