Dont stress it, just bend your knees, go through it like a normal turn, and push off the water at the peak. Push just slightly more on your back foot.

I see your down in Austin. Go and take some lessons at TSR. (www.texasskiranch.com) They have a boat lake for lessons as well as a cable park (I bet you already knew that). More than likely you aren't staying on edge all the way through the top of the wake, but they can help you dial it in. Good luck!

practice and one big thing is just cutting hard hitting the wake going big...its tuff at first and scary but once u get it, its awesome. just remember cut out as far as u can when u come back in make sure ur form is right and ur almost like sitting in a chair. When u hit the wake at the top of it stand up tall . dont move ur rope over ur head r anything stay in proper form. then prepare to land. you will get just practice
