I am having some trouble with my hs wake to wake. I have made wake to wake at like 60 ft, but put the line out to 70ft and just cant make it. My friend rides at 75 feet and edges out like 5-8ft from the wake and can land into the flats. at 70ft i edge out till i l am parallel with the boat and do a progressive edge into the wake and still land on top of the second wake. what do yall think i am doing wrong.

There are lots of posts on progessive edge, getting height etc. If you post a decent video you'll probably get some specific feedback.

DadKid, man your grumpy! Surprised You either need a beer, smoke or a woman but which ever it is you should go and get it! Very Happy

Xtumor, assuming you are progressively edging in well, you probably need to hold your edge through the wake. I would imagine you are flattening off as you run up the wake which will undo all your good work in the progressive edge. When you edge up the wake and leave the wake imagine you are trying to show the graphics on the bottom of your board to the people in the boat. This should stop you coming off the edge. This will in turn give you a good pop and give you the time in the air to clear the wake. Also make sure you keep the handle in close as this will make the landing easier and will also make the edging easier.

I hope this is of help?

Hey Rocket, I wasn't being grumpy. In fact there are a lot of replies to posts like this that tell people to get off the forum because they've asked a question that has been posted many times before. Maybe I was a little brief in making my suggestion but I think people here really like to coach people when there is a pic or vid to see.
