I tried riding cuff position (backwards) like in The Book but I cant seem to balance board. I did manage to hold the handle with 2 hands though. Any suggestions? Thanks

I cant hold my position. My board doesnt want to stay straight towards the boat. Its waivering along and I fall within 2 seconds after I turn around. Should I place more weight on my hind foot (furthest away from the boat) and bend over more or am I bending too much? SHould I bend more before grabbing handle or after?

Yes sounds like you need to lean over your toes more....

Your not going to be able to ride around in this position too well anyway it's more to get the feel of landing wrapped and being able to look behind you and still ride.

It should be used more as a training tool to help you progress with wrapped landings and passing the handle after you land.
