I am still landing on my rear foot. Get plenty of pop and plenty of rotation, I just land rear heavy popping a wheelie towards the boat. Any suggestions?

If you are landing back foot heavy then i am presuming that you are not backing off before the wake?

Shift your weight more to the nose or front foot and stamp with your front foot as you reach the wake. backing off seems to take you "up and over" more, rather than "away" which is a bad habbit to break but in my opinion still looks ok as long as you can also throw a text book crow.

good luck

I will try putting more weight on my front foot..... thanks. I am coming off edge before the wake but I looked at my self on tape and I am throwing my spin off the wake too so I will try to spin with more front rotation before pulling the handle.

Give it a go but as for handle position you dont have to do that much off the wake, just keep it at waiste level and push down if anything. dont let it get away or you just sort of drop like a stone. load on your back arm on your way into the wake.
