I can easily go W2W on HS but have much difficulty on TS. It is easy to try to "sit in a chair" on the HS which helped A LOT but does anyone have any suggestion to get W2W on TS??? I try to carve hard and load the line but always end up letting go with my right hand (I'm left foot forward) for balance and land on the far wake. Any suggestions?

Also, if anyone has any trick to get more air on the HS I would appreciate it, too. My prob is that I think I absorb too much of the wake to get the full height of my jump -- I tried to "stand up tall" on the wake but usually end up stiffing up and looking rediculous. Thanks!!!

say man, it really helps to make sure and pull the rope to your lead hip when youre in the air. other than that, be sure and use a good proggressive edge and stay on that edge all the way through the wake Rolling Eyes
