wakerider361, try to keep it even. With more pressure/weight on your back leg, it will cause your front leg to end up a foot or more above your back foot and can cause you to go way off balance. The other day i ended up almost level with the water and my right leg hit the water first absorbing the impact alone and my knee ached for a couple days.

Just try and find the technique that works best for you. Good luck.
